CRANBERRY VIENNESE SANDWICH CREAMS

The crochet side-pate is from Dishes Only. THEY ARE THE COOKIE-VERSION OF A FEEL-GOOD MOVIE, EMOTIONALLY EQUIVALENT TO A BOX OF GOLDEN TWIN-PUPPIES EACH HUGGING A HAPPY GIGGLE. [ezcol_2third] [/ezcol_2third][ezcol_1third_end] This is what I've been busy with for the past 7 days, recreating Mark & Spencer's Viennese raspberry sandwich creams.  What does that say about me, spending 84 hours scrutinizing a processed junk-food from a super chainstore, I don't know.  But I had to make it. If you ever had childhood experience of reaching into a tin-box, and sneaking one of those buttery nuggets of vanilla cookies into your mouth as your first memory of pure foodgasm, then I guess, you can sort of understand.  But this, this is better, upgraded.  You can either go to your nearest M&S to see for yourself, or you can stay here and do it at home.  But how I got here, however unexpectedly long it took, was no vanilla road.  Checking out all the trusted recipes that were already out there, which, affirmingly, were all very similar to one another, let's just say that I thought it was gonna be easy.  If they all agreed on it, it must work fine, right?  Humppphhh
