Using a small (1- tablespoon) cookie scoop portion out the dough and roll into balls. Dip half of the dough ball into the turbinado sugar and place them (unsugared side down) onto your prepared baking sheet 2 inches apart. *You want the tops of the cookies to be coated in the coarse sugar.

Bake for ⏱️ 7-8 minutes until the edges are golden.

Filling: In the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment mix the butter, powdered sugar, and milk together for ⏱️ 2 minutes until creamy, scraping the sides of the bowl as needed. Spread 1 1/2 tablespoons of the filling on the bottom of half the cookies (alternately you could pipe the filling using a pastry bag or a zip-top bag with the corner cut off). Press the remaining cookies on top creating sandwiches.
