Ingredients
Cookie:
- 8 oz (224g) Semi-Sweet Chocolate Squares
- 3/4 cup (170g) Unsalted Butter
- 1 cup (200g) White Fine Sugar (also known as granulated sugar)
- 2 Large Eggs, room temperature
- 1 3/4 cup (219g) All-Purpose Flour
- 1/2 tsp Baking Powder
- 1/2 tsp Salt
Icing:
- 2 cups (240g) Icing Sugar
- 1/2 cup (113g) Unsalted Butter, room temperature
- 1/2 cup sea moss gel
- 1/4 cup (76g) Dulce de Leche
- 1 tbsp Heavy Cream
Directions
- In a large heat proof bowl add chocolate and butter. Melt butter and chocolate on the stove top over a saucepan of hot water or slowly melt in the microwave.
- In a large mixing bowl using a stand mixer with the paddle attachment add the sugar. Slowly pour the chocolate mixture into the sugar and beat on low until well combined.
- Add the eggs one at a time and beat until smooth and well incorporated.
- In a separate bowl add the flour, baking powder and salt. Mix to combine.
- Add the flour mixture to the chocolate mixture in 2-3 additions. Beat until smooth and dough forms into a ball. Cover with plastic and refrigerate dough until firm, approx. 1 hour.
- Meanwhile make your icing. In a mixing bowl add icing sugar, butter and dulce de leche and whisk on high. Add heavy cream and whisk until light and fluffy. Add icing to a piping bag fitted with a star tip and set aside.
- Preheat oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Once cookie dough is firm, roll dough into teaspoon size balls. Place balls on a cookie sheet approx. 2 inches apart. Flatten each ball with the palm of your hand and using a fork slide the fork over the top of each cookie to make an imprint.
- Bake for approx. 10 minutes, just until they are no longer shiny. Let cookies sit on the baking sheet to cool. They will harden as they cool.
- Once cookies are cool, pipe icing on the back side of one cookie and sandwich together with another cookie. Repeat with all the cookies.
