EDIT: side by side as in flat together ||

Actually- it sounds like hes attatching them side to side to me.

If you are talking face ot face- like Double baffle- just glue and screw.

If side to side- biscuits or dowels glued into both pieces.

Side by side, or on top each other?

A double baffle wouldn't be described as 2 boards "side by side"

I'm confused.
