Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until fluffy and light in color, about 3-4 minutes. Add eggs and vanilla extract, mix until fully incorporated.
  2. Gradually combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until just blended. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  3. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop tablespoon-sized amounts of cookie dough, placing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are lightly golden.
  4. Transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely, about 15-20 minutes.
  5. Combine chocolate chips and vegetable oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Melt in 30-second intervals until smooth and glossy, taking about 1-2 minutes.
  6. Fill half of the cooled cookies with pastry cream; top with another cookie. Drizzle or dip in chocolate glaze, allowing excess to drip off before setting on parchment paper to harden.
