Hello, and welcome! My daughter will be celebrating her 13th birthday soon and we are already on party mode, so it's only fair that I post here one of her favorite cookie recipes: chocolate cookie sandwiches, with white chocolate filling.
Ingredients:
- 100 grams of butter or vegetable margarine
- 4 tablespoons of powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons of powdered chocolate
- 180 grams of flour
- 2 egg yolks
- 1/4 of a teaspoon of baking powder
- 120 grams of white chocolate
Utensils:
- mixing bowls (microwave safe to melt the butter and the chocolate)
- mixing spoon
- rolling pin
- baking paper
- round cookie cutter (or any other shape you prefer)
- heat resistant piping bag (if you don't have one, a spatula will work just fine)
Instructions:
Melt the butter and mix it with the sugar, the egg yolks and the cocoa. Add the flour and the baking powder. Spread your ball of dough on a sheet of baking paper, place another sheet of baking paper on top and, using a rolling pin, press the dough until it's about 1 cm thick.
Refrigerate for about one hour and then use cookie cutters to cut your cookies to shape. Try to make sure you have an even number of cookies, since you will be pairing them off to create the cookie sandwiches
Place the cookies on an oven tray lined with baking paper and bake for 10 to 15 minutes at 170ยบ C.
Once the cookies are out of the oven and had time to cool down, melt the which chocolate in the microwave in small increments, place it on the piping bag and using a round nozzle, spread the melted chocolate in the center of one cookie, quickly covering it with another cookie to create the sandwich (if you don't have a heat resistant piping bag, a small spatula or even a knife should allow you to spread the white chocolate over the cookies easily). Repeat the process until all cookies are paired.
Use any excess white chocolate to decorate the top of your cookie sandwiches (decor below courtesy of my daughter).
Enjoy and happy Thursday!
