Ingredients:
- 8 ounces dark chocolate, chopped
- 1/2 cup (125g) butter
- 1 cup (135g) all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- A pinch of salt
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup (100g) brown sugar
Directions:
- Melt the butter and chocolate together in a heatproof bowl, using either short bursts in the microwave or a double boiler method, until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, mix the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
- Whip the eggs with both sugars for about 5 minutes on high speed until light and fluffy.
- Combine the melted chocolate mixture with the egg mixture on low speed. Gradually add the flour mixture, ensuring everything is well-incorporated.
- Chill the dough in the refrigerator until it’s firm enough to handle.
- Preheat your oven to 356°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Form the dough into round balls, inserting a teaspoon of frozen chocolate spread into the center of each before sealing and placing them on the baking sheet.
- Bake for 9-10 minutes until they are crackled on the outside but still soft inside. Allow to cool on the tray for at least 20 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
These cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or frozen for up to 2 months.
