Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter and powdered sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the vanilla extract and mix until combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and salt.
Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, mixing until just combined.
Add the egg whites and mix until the batter is smooth but thick.
Transfer the batter to a piping bag fitted with a plain round tip. Pipe 2-inch long strips of batter onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving at least 1 inch of space between each cookie.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are lightly golden.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool completely on a wire rack.
While the cookies cool, prepare the chocolate filling. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips and heavy cream in 15-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth.
Once the cookies are cool, spread a thin layer of the melted chocolate on the flat side of one cookie and sandwich it with another cookie.
Repeat until all cookies are filled and sandwiched.
Allow the chocolate to set completely before serving. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
