Custard Cream Cookies Recipe derived from a Recipe out of one of my cookbooks from a Recipe called Jelly Biscuits.  There were some minor adjustments to accommodate the flavor and look.  The original recipe called for rolled oats to which I used whole wheat flour in its place with the same exact  measurements.  The original recipe sandwiched with jelly or jam.  However, I made a butter cream filling to form a custard cream filling.  The original recipe also called for oval shape with two cut out circles for jam to show through, but I used a round cookie cutter of 1 7/8 in 48  mm  size and sandwiched two cookies with the filling.  Thank you "Cookery In Colour A picture encyclopedia for occasion edits by Marguerite Patten" for the ideas to diversify recipes in similarity.
