Chocolate Puddle Cookies
An almost caramel like crunchy exterior with a fudgy cookie interior that wraps all the chocolate that is now melted into little puddles, which makes for a perfect texture with every bite of these cookies.
Equipment
- Planetary mixer, paddle attachment
- Rubber spatula
- Metal slotted spatula
- Cookie sheet tray
- Sieve
- Baking paper
- Ice cream scoop
Ingredients
- 70 gm Butter soft
- 30 gm Shortening
- 100 gm White sugar
- 120 gm Brown sugar
- 1 tsp Vanilla
- 1 no Egg (50gm)
- 170 gm Flour
- 10 gm Corn flour
- ¾ tsp Baking soda
- 1 tsp Salt
- 7 ounces Dark Chocolate (large dices)
Instructions
- In a planetary mixer with a paddle attachment beat the butter and shortening until pale and combined.
- Add the white and brown sugar with the vanilla and beat until creamy and lighter in texture and color.
- Add the egg and beat again until well incorporated and the mixture looks airy.
- Sift the flour, corn flour, baking soda and salt over the bowl and cream the mixture on low speed until combined. Always scraping down the sides.
- Using an Ice cream scoop portion the dough out onto a baking tray and set in the fridge for 1 hour minimum.
- In a preheated oven at 170°C place 6 chilled cookie dough balls onto a lined 14x8 inch cookie tray with baking paper. They will spread while baking hence be mindful of the spacing.
- Bake for 12-15 mins until the top is dry to touch and slightly risen. Remove and leave to cool on the cookie tray for a couple of minutes before transfer them to a wire rack to cool for 20 mins at least.
- Store in an airtight container/jar at room temperature once completely cooled.
Notes
PRO TIP
>*Brown Sugar at home hack:
If you have granulated brown sugar blend it until it reaches a fine powder like texture to make soft brown sugar.
In a planetary mixer you can mix 1 cup castor sugar with 1 tbsp Molasses or Treacle to create your own brown sugar at home.
> Use a slotted metal spatula/fish slice/scraper to lift the cookies off the baking tray while transferring them to the wire rack.
