Ingredients:
- 60 grams of softened butter
- 40 grams of high-quality sunflower oil
- 1 gram of orange zest
- 90 grams of white sugar
- 110 grams of brown sugar
- 80 grams of eggs (about 2 medium)
- 5 grams of vanilla extract
- 270 grams of all-purpose flour
- 65 grams of cocoa powder
- 1 gram of cinnamon powder
- 2 grams of baking powder
- 2 grams of baking soda
- 170 grams of dark chocolate chunks
- 75 grams of fresh, skinless grated coconut
- In a mixing bowl, cream together the butter, sunflower oil, orange zest, and both sugars for 90 seconds until light and fluffy.
- Incorporate the eggs and vanilla extract, continuing to mix for another 60 seconds.
- Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cocoa powder, and cinnamon. Gradually add these dry ingredients to the wet mixture, along with the dark chocolate chunks and grated coconut. Mix at medium speed for about 60 seconds until all ingredients are well incorporated and the dough achieves a semi-moist texture.
- Chill the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to firm up.
- After chilling, shape the dough into 170-gram balls and freeze them for 50 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius (356 degrees Fahrenheit) and line a baking tray with parchment paper. Place the dough balls on the tray, ensuring they are spaced apart to allow for spreading.
- Bake for 15-18 minutes, keeping an eye on them to ensure they do not overcook. The goal is to retain the fudgy, brownie-like texture.
- Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the tray for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy these ultimate Prestige Brownie Fudge Cookies that beautifully blend the rich, fudgy texture of brownies with the crunchy sweetness of coconut and a refreshing hint of orange zest!
