These sandwiches are made with soft and chewy gingerbread cookies that are filled with a rich and creamy caramel filling.
To make these Gingerbread Caramel Sandwiches, you will need the following ingredients:

For the Gingerbread Cookies:

- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp ground ginger
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp ground cloves
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 3/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup molasses
- 1 egg

For the Caramel Filling:

- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 6 tbsp unsalted butter, cut into pieces
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 tsp salt
To make the Gingerbread Cookies, start by preheating your oven to 350°F. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and salt. In a separate large bowl, beat the butter and brown sugar together until light and fluffy. Add in the molasses and egg, and beat until well combined. Gradually add in the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Roll the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly browned. Allow the cookies to cool completely before filling.
To make the Caramel Filling, heat the granulated sugar in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir constantly until the sugar has melted and turned a deep amber color. Add in the butter and stir until melted. Slowly pour in the heavy cream while stirring constantly. The mixture will bubble up, so be careful. Stir in the salt and continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the caramel has thickened.
To assemble the Gingerbread Caramel Sandwiches, spread a generous amount of the caramel filling onto the bottom of one cookie. Top with another cookie and gently press down to create a sandwich. Repeat with the remaining cookies and filling.
These Gingerbread Caramel Sandwiches are the perfect combination of sweet and spicy. The soft and chewy gingerbread cookies pair perfectly with the rich and creamy caramel filling. These sandwiches are sure to be a hit at any holiday gathering or dessert table.
