HOLY SUGAR COOKIE SANDWICH! I about died, DIED, when I bit into the amazingness that is the vanilla, vanilla "Oreo" with buttercream frosting inside. I must award it the Golden Cherry now for best Sugar Cookie-Vanilla Buttercream sandwich, for I'm sure nothing in that category will compare. ;)
Imagine baking Pillsbury sugar cookies and then spreading on some Betty Crocker frosting: now imagine that combination tasting a hundred times better with real, natural, and fresh ingredients, and Voila- you've got yourself my favorite cookie from Platine Cookies in Culver City.
Platine Cookies makes small delights that look and taste like the best batch from a friend's homemade recipe. Butter plays a prominent role in each baked good that Platine makes. It's amazing how something as simple as real, great butter, and it's ratio to salt, can dictate the wow-factor in a cookie. But it does!
Above is an image of my box of treats that I bought and devoured today. My star cookie is in the far left, upper corner. That Disco Ho Ho on the far right wasn't kidding around either.
As I was buying my goodies, the couple next to me said that Mary Steenburgen had recommend the bakery to them. So there you go- Platine's Cookies is even celebrity approved! ;)
