Ingredients:
- 120 grams of soft butter
- 110 grams of sugar (approximately 1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons)
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon of baking powder
- 1 packet of vanilla
- 1 cup + 2 tablespoons of flour
- 1 heaping tablespoon of starch
- 1/2 cup of cocoa
- For the filling: White chocolate pieces
Instructions:
- Start by preheating your oven to 175 degrees Celsius (347 degrees Fahrenheit) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together all the dry ingredients: flour, starch, cocoa, and baking powder.
- In another bowl, cream the soft butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg and mix until well combined.
- Gradually incorporate the dry ingredients into the butter mixture, mixing until a non-sticky dough forms.
- Take small portions of the dough and flatten them slightly. Place a piece of white chocolate in the center of each and roll the dough around it to form a ball.
- Place the dough balls on the prepared baking tray, ensuring there is enough space between them for slight spreading.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, depending on how soft or crunchy you prefer your cookies.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly on the tray before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
