Installing two noggins into the same stud

Hello

I'm looking to install a noggin either side of an existing stud. The noggins need to be level as it's to support a floating shelf.

How should I go about attaching them to the middle joist?

Can I do a straight screw for one of them and then angled for the other? Would one screw per noggin suffice?

It's a 38mm X 63mm stud.

Thanks
