Brownie Stuffed Chocolate Chip Cookies


Ingredients


Chocolate Chip Cookies:

1 cup softened butter
¾ cup brown sugar
¼ cup white sugar
1 egg yolk
1 tbsp golden syrup
1 tsp vanilla
1 tbsp milk
1¾ cup flour
¼ tsp baking soda
Pinch of salt
½ cup chocolate chips

Brownie Filling:

1 cup powdered sugar
1 egg white
2 tbsp cocoa
1/3 cup flour

Method:

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough:

1.   Add all the dry ingredients together and set aside.
2.   Cream together the butter and the brown and white sugars.
3.   Add the egg yolk, golden syrup, vanilla and milk and mix until well combined.
4.   Fold in half the dry ingredients and mix until well combined, then add the rest of the dry ingredients. Add more milk or flour if the mixture is too dry or too wet.
5.   Once the mixture has formed into a dough, fold in the chocolate chips (set some aside for garnishing.)
6.   Cover the dough with cling wrap and place in the fridge.

Brownie filling:

1.   Mix together the powdered sugar and egg whites until a paste forms.
2.   Add the cocoa powder and mix in  well.
3.   Add in the flour and continue mixing.
4.   The dough will be very sticky, do not add more flour.
5.   Make sure that the bowl is scraped down well, but don’t worry if some dough remains stuck to the bowl.
6.   Set aside at room temperature.

Stuffed Cookies:

1.   Cover a surface with flour and roll out the chocolate chip dough.
2.   Cut into circles using a round cookie cutter.
3.   Place half the circles on a greased baking plate and set the other half aside.
4.   Cover the surface in slightly more flour and roll out the brownie dough.
5.   Note that because of the stickiness of the dough, only roll out about ¼ of it at a time, this will prevent it from sticking to the surface.
6.   Use a slightly smaller cookie cutter than previously and cut the dough into circles.
7.   Place the brownie circles on the chocolate chip circles in the baking plate.
8.   Take the extra chocolate chip circles and place them on top of the brownie layers as if making a sandwich.
9.   Use your fingers to gently press down on the perimeter of the cookies and then press down slightly in the middle.
10.   Gently press the extra chocolate chips onto the tops of the cookies.
11.   Bake at 180°C/350°F for 18-20 mins.
