In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugars. Add milk and egg, and mix well. Combine dry ingredients, gradually adding it to the creamed mixture. Mix well.

Cover and chill for 2 hours, or until firm.

Pre-heat oven to 375°.

Roll chilled dough on a lightly floured surface, to 1/8 inch thickness. Cut with a 1½ inch cookie cutter and place 1 inch apart on greased baking sheets. Bake at 375° for 5-6 minutes, or until edges are lightly browned.

Remove to wire racks to cool completely.

Combine filling ingredients. Spread on half of the cookies, and top with another cookie to make a sandwich.
