Enhance cookies with malted milk powder for richness and add double chocolate for decadence in sandwich cookies.
Ingredients:
  • 500.00 ml plain flour
  • 65.00 gm dutch-processed cocoa powder
  • 25.00 gm malted milk powder
  • 2.50 gm bicarbonate of soda
  • 1.20 gm sea salt flakes
  • 250g unsalted butter, softened
  • 376.25 gm caster sugar
  • 8.80 gm vanilla extract
  • 125.00 gm creme fraiche
  • 62.50 gm hot water
  • 250g dark chocolate, coarsely chopped
  • 80g unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
  • 100.00 gm malted milk powder
  • 90g cream cheese, softened
  • 83.33 gm thickened cream
  • 4.40 gm vanilla extract
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 180°C/160°C fan-forced. Grease and line 4 large baking trays with baking paper.
  • Combine flour, cocoa powder, malted milk powder, bicarbonate of soda, and salt by sifting them together. Use an electric mixer to beat butter and sugar on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 10 minutes. Mix in egg, vanilla, creme fraiche, and hot water. Reduce speed to low and add the flour mixture, beating until combined.
  • Shape heaping tablespoons of dough into perfect balls, making a total of 50 (refer to notes). Arrange evenly on prepared trays with 8cm space between each. Bake in two separate batches for 10-12 minutes until they are beautifully flat and delicately firm. Let them sit on the trays for 5 minutes, then gently move to a wire rack lined with parchment paper to cool completely.
  • While waiting, prepare the Filling: Combine chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl placed over a simmering pan of water until melted. Let it cool. Mix malted milk powder and cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth on medium speed. Slowly add cream, chocolate mixture, and vanilla. Chill covered for 30 minutes until thick. Beat on high speed for 3 minutes until fluffy.
  • Spread a generous tablespoon of filling on a cookie, top with another cookie to create a delicious sandwich. Repeat process and get ready to enjoy!
