Gradually add confectioners’ sugar, beating until well blended after each addition. Add milk and vanilla; mix well. Add cinnamon and ginger; beat until well blended. To assemble cookie sandwiches, spread about 2 tablespoons of the filling on the flat side of 1 cookie. Top with a second cookie. Repeat with remaining cookies and filling.
