Servings: 26

Ingredients

  • 125 gram/1/2 cup butter soft
  • 1/4 cup castor sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla essence
  • 2 tbsp golden syrup
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1&1/4 cup cake wheat flour or all purpose flour you may not require all of it
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder

Decorating

  • 200 gram milk or dark chocolate melted

Instructions

  • Using an electric mixer beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy
  • Mix in the vanilla essence and golden syrup
  • Add the cocoa, a little flour and the baking powder and combine
  • Add little bits of flour until you form a firm but pliable dough
  • Roll out the dough, about half a millimeter thickness and cut into shapes. I used a small square cutter
  • Place the cookies on a parchment lined cookie sheet and refrigerate for 30 minutes
  • Preheat oven to 160 degrees Celsius
  • Bake cookies for 8 minutes or until you can smell them. They will still be a little soft when removed from the oven
  • Cool the cookies on a wire rack
  • Melt the chocolate in the microwave, 20 second increments. Dip each cookie into the chocolate, one side only. Place them on parchment paper on a flat tray and freeze for 10 minutes
  • Sandwich the cookies together with more melted chocolate
  • You can add some melted chocolate to a zip lock bag and snip a tiny hole in one corner. Drizzle the chocolate on one side of the cookie. This final step is optional

Notes

  1. Don't be tempted to add all the flour at once. Once it's all added it will be difficult to fix the dough if too hard
  2. You can use any chocolate you prefer. I used Dairymilk milk chocolate You can use dark chocolate if you prefer
  3. I did not sandwich the cookies and then dip them in chocolate as that will make it difficult to get a smooth finish on both sides
