No, you did not misread the title of this post. These are indeed Everything Bagel Shortbread Cookie Sandwiches, but before you turn your nose and call them weird, I think it’s worth mentioning that while they technically are cookie sandwiches, they’re not like the cookie sandwiches we’re used to around this time of year. These aren’t sweet at all. You won’t find sugar in the ingredient list because that would be weird, and I’m not some kind of animal. The dough is a savory shortbread, flavored with parmesan, salt and pepper and they’re filled with a [store-bought] garlic and herb cream cheese, and topped with my favorite everything bagel seasoning blend. They were inspired by these doughnuts I made a while back, and I believe they’re going to steal the show at everyone’s cookie exchange this year. Believe in me. I won’t steer you wrong.
