Equipment
- 2 Baking sheet
- 1 Mixing bowl
- 1 Electric mixer
- 1 Rolling Pin
- 1 Cookie cutter
- 1 Cooling rack
Ingredients
- 2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup unsalted butter softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup chocolate chips melted
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.
- Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 1/4 inch thickness.
- Use a cookie cutter to cut out cookies and place them on the prepared baking sheets.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Transfer cookies to a cooling rack and let them cool completely.
- For the filling, whisk together powdered sugar and heavy cream until smooth.
- Spread a small amount of the filling on the bottom side of one cookie.
- Place another cookie on top to create a sandwich.
- Dip half of the sandwich cookie into the melted chocolate and let it set.
- Repeat with remaining cookies and allow them to rest until the chocolate is firm.
Notes
For extra tips, ensure that the butter is at room temperature for easier mixing and a better texture. When rolling out the dough, keep it uniform in thickness to ensure even baking. If the dough becomes too soft while working, refrigerate it for a few minutes to firm it up. For a flavor twist, consider adding a hint of almond extract or a sprinkle of sea salt on the chocolate-dipped side.
