12 cup granulated sugar

2 14 cups all-purpose flour
12 teaspoon baking soda
12 teaspoon salt
12 teaspoon ground cinnamon
14 teaspoon ground nutmeg
34 cup chopped black walnuts or walnuts
Filling
2 cups powdered sugar
14 cup Land O Lakes® Butter, softened
12 teaspoon maple flavoring
2 to 3 tablespoons Land O Lakes® Half & Half
STEP 1
Combine 3/4 cup butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, egg and vanilla in bowl; beat at medium speed until well mixed. Add all remaining cookie ingredients except walnuts. Beat at low speed until mixed. Stir in walnuts.
STEP 2
Divide dough in half; shape each half into 10-inch log. Wrap each in plastic food wrap; refrigerate at least 1 hour or until firm.
STEP 3
Heat oven to 375°F.
STEP 4
Cut each log into 1/4-inch slices with sharp knife; place slices onto ungreased cookie sheets. Bake 7-9 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Immediately remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks. Cool completely.
STEP 5
Combine powdered sugar, 1/4 cup butter and maple flavoring in bowl. Beat at low speed, adding enough half & half for desired frosting consistency, until well mixed. Increase speed to medium; beat until light and fluffy.
STEP 6
Spread heaping teaspoonful of maple buttercream onto bottom of 1 cookie. Top with another cookie, bottom-side down. Repeat with remaining cookies and frosting.
Look for black walnuts in the baking aisle of most supermarkets.
Keep the dough for these crisp delicious cookies in the refrigerator for up to 2 days, or in the freezer for 6 weeks. Bake just the amount you want. Store unused maple buttercream in a tightly covered container in refrigerator.
