Martha Stewart's exquisite Christmas chocolate cookies elevate holiday celebrations.
Ingredients:
  • 187.50 ml plain flour
  • 42.90 gm dutch processed cocoa powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • 85g unsalted butter, softened
  • 112.50 gm icing sugar mixture, sifted
  • 1 large egg
  • 2.20 gm vanilla extract
  • 120g unsalted butter, softened
  • 300.00 gm icing sugar mixture, sifted
  • Chocolate, coffee, peanut butter, mint or raspberry flavouring (see note)
Instructions:
  • In a bowl, combine flour, cocoa, and salt. In another bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together butter and sugar until pale and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla, beat until combined. Slowly mix in the flour on low speed until fully combined. Place half the dough on a floured surface and shape into a disc (dough will be soft). Wrap with plastic. Repeat with the rest of the dough. Chill overnight or until firm.
  • Prepare 2 large baking trays by lining them with baking paper. Roll out 1 dough disc between 2 sheets of baking paper until it is 3mm thick. Use a 4cm square cutter to cut shapes from the dough, rerolling and cutting any dough scraps. Transfer the shapes to the prepared trays using a small metal spatula or butter knife, ensuring they are 2cm apart. Place the trays in the freezer for 15 minutes or until the shapes are firm.
  • Preheat oven to 160°C/140°C fan-forced. Bake for 12 to 14 minutes until edges are lightly firm, rotating trays halfway through. Let cool on trays for 2 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Prepare Filling: Cream butter using an electric mixer until smooth. Gradually incorporate icing sugar and beat until fluffy. Mix in your favorite flavoring according to your preference.
  • Evenly spread a hint of filling on half of the cookies. Sandwich with the remaining cookies. Chill for 15 minutes before enjoying.
