These vanilla pepper mint filling based sandwich cookies are my baking sweetheart. Chocolate decadence makes them extra ordinarily yummy.
Ingredients
- ¼ lb Unsalted butter
- 1¼ cup salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tbs Vanilla extract
- ½ cup Unsweetened cocoa
- 2 cup flour
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 tbs Baking powder
- ½ tsp Baking soda
- 4 tbs Unsalted butter
- 1 tbs Vanilla extract
- 4 cup Confectioner's sugar
Directions
- To make the cookies, cream the butter with the sugar in a large bowl until light. Beat in eggs and vanilla; set aside. Sift the cocoa, flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda together.
- Stir the dry ingredients thoroughly into the butter mixture. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 or 3 hours. Preheat the oven to 375 F and butter 2 cookie sheets.
- Using a teaspoon measure, roll level teaspoons of the dough into balls and place them 2 inches apart on the sheets. Bake for 10 to 15 mins, until cookies are puffed and surfaces slightly dry and cracked. Cool on racks.
- To make the filling, cream the butter until light. Beat in the vanilla and powdered sugar, adding whipping cream and continuing to beat until the consistency is like creamy frosting.
- When the cookies are complete cool, spread about ½ tablespoon of filling on the bottom of one cookie, then top with the bottom side of another cookie.
- Makes about 3 dozen sandwiches.
- Variation : For half a batch of vanilla-filled and half a batch of peppermint-filled cookies, add ⅛ teaspoon peppermint extract to half the filling. Tint the peppermint filling pink or green before filling half the sandwiches.
