Time 45m

Yield 36 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 sticks (16 tablespoons) good-quality unsalted butter, at room temperature
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg yolk
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 cup turbinado sugar

Steps:

  • Whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Add the butter and granulated sugar to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Beat on high speed for a full 2 minutes, scraping down the bowl halfway through the mixing; the butter should be very light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla and beat on medium speed until well combined. Add half the dry ingredients and beat on low speed to combine. Scrape down the mixing bowl before adding the remaining dry ingredients and beat to combine. Refrigerate for 1 hour in the bowl for drop cookies, or form into a 1-inch log for slice-and-bake cookies.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Place the turbinado sugar in a small bowl. For drop cookies, scoop the cookie dough with a 1 tablespoon-size cookie scoop and then dip the tops of the cookie dough balls into the sugar. Place onto the prepared baking sheet.
  • For slice-and-bake cookies, cut the log into 1/2-inch-thick rounds. Press the tops into the sugar and place on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake the cookies until slightly puffed and lightly golden on the bottom, about 15 minutes.

COPYCAT BERGER COOKIES



Copycat Berger Cookies image

After a friend who had recently traveled to Baltimore sent me a package of Berger cookies, I was hooked. They disappeared so quickly, I decided to try to re-create them at home. After many tests and tweaks, my husband and I gained 6 pounds between the two of us, but it was worth it-I landed on a reproduction of the famous cookie I'm so proud of. -Marina Castle Kelley, Canyon Country, California

COPYCAT BERGER COOKIES



Copycat Berger Cookies image

Berger cookies are a product of Baltimore's DeBaufre Bakeries. They are similar to New York City's Black and Whites (a.k.a. Half-and-Halfs or Half Moons). They are cake-like cookies piled with thick, rich chocolate icing. The cookies themselves are on the dry side, so the icing is there to help provide moisture and richness. Store in single layers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.

Time 2h55m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 15

⅓ cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon kosher salt
½ cup white sugar
1 large egg
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
⅓ cup whole milk
1 ½ cups semisweet chocolate chips
½ cup heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup confectioners' sugar, sifted
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar, sifted
¼ teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Position oven racks in top and bottom thirds of oven. Line two large rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Beat butter, vanilla, baking powder, and salt together in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment on medium-high speed until creamy, about 3 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Beat in sugar on medium-high speed until smooth, about 1 minute. Add egg; beat on low until just combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Alternately add flour and milk on low speed, beginning and ending with flour, until just combined.
  • Drop slightly rounded tablespoons of dough 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets. Roll dough with floured hands into balls, then gently flatten each ball to a 1 1/2-inch wide circle.
  • Bake in the preheated oven, rotating pans halfway through, until golden brown on bottoms, about 10 minutes. Place pans on wire racks; let cool completely on pans, about 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, bring 1 inch of water in a small saucepan to a boil over medium-high heat; reduce heat to medium. Place chocolate chips, cream, corn syrup, and vanilla for icing in a medium, heat-proof bowl; place bowl over simmering water in the saucepan; cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until chocolate is melted and mixture is combined, about 5 minutes. Remove bowl from heat; whisk in 1 cup plus 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar and salt until smooth and thickened, 2 minutes.
  • Dip the flat side of each cookie into the warm icing; return to the baking sheet, chocolate-side up. Let cookies and chocolate cool slightly, uncovered, to room temperature, about 10 minutes. Spread remaining icing evenly over chocolate-dipped cookie tops (about 1 tablespoon each). Let sit at room temperature, until icing is completely set, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe bananas. Use overripe bananas for the best flavor and texture. They should be soft and mushy, with a few brown spots.
  • Mash the bananas well. Make sure the bananas are mashed until smooth before adding them to the batter. This will help the cookies to be light and fluffy.
  • Use a combination of sugars. Using both white sugar and brown sugar will give the cookies a more complex flavor.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set. The cookies should be slightly brown around the edges and set in the center. If you overbake them, they will be dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before serving. This will help them to firm up and develop their full flavor.

Conclusion:

Booger cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are soft and chewy with a sweet and slightly tangy flavor. The combination of bananas, peanut butter, and chocolate chips makes them a surefire hit with people of all ages. So next time you are looking for a simple and delicious dessert, give booger cookies a try.
