4. With the mixer on low speed, add flour, cornstarch, baking soda, dry pudding mix and cocoa powder.

10. Slowly add 3 cups of powdered sugar. Mix until combined.

11. Mix in the vanilla extract.

12. Add the rest of the powdered sugar and mix until smooth. Add water or milk until it’s the right consistency.

13. Once cookies are cool, make cookie sandwiches and sprinkle with sprinkles.
