For the Cookies (Makes 15):
- 150g butter, room temperature
- 1/4 cup (70g) white sugar
- 3/4 cup (115g) brown sugar
- 1 egg (55g)
- 1 1/4 cups (160g) flour
- 1/3 cup (40g) cocoa powder
- 1/2 tsp (2g) baking powder
- 1/4 tsp (1g) baking soda
- 1/2 tsp (2g) salt
- 100g chopped milk chocolate
For Assembling:
- 15 white chocolate pralines or white chocolate cubes
Method:
- In a mixer with a paddle attachment (or manually as shown in the video), combine room-temperature butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until creamy.
- Gradually add the egg until fully incorporated.
- Sift in flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt into the mixture and blend until a uniform dough forms.
- Stir in the chopped milk chocolate.
- Refrigerate the cookie dough for about 20 minutes.
- Using an ice cream scoop, form equal-sized balls (40g each). Make a small indentation in the center of each ball and place a white chocolate praline inside. Close and roll into a smooth ball.
- Arrange on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, spaced evenly apart.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 175°C (350°F) for 9-10 minutes. Allow cooling slightly outside the oven until they set (they should be soft when removed from the oven and will firm up after a few minutes).
- Enjoy your delightful Amsterdam Cookies!
