Scoop the dough using a 4 tsp cookie scoop to portion the dough onto a parchment or silicone mat lines baking sheet and space about 2" apart. Flatten the balls slightly and place in the fridge for about 20 minutes.

While the cookies chill, preheat the oven to 375°F and make the filling.
Cream the butter in a mixer with a paddle attachment until fluffy, about 5 minutes and then beat in the vanilla. Slowly add powdered sugar, about 1/2 cup at a time. Once all of the powdered sugar is combined, beat in the milk. Mix on high for a few minutes until fluffy and combined.

Add the filling to a ziploc bag {I place in a glass so it's easy to fill} and put in the fridge to firm up.

Bake the cookies 10-12 minutes, until lightly golden brown. Let the cookies cool on a rack for 30 minutes before filling.
