Categories     dessert

Time 4h

Yield 30 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/2 teaspoons instant espresso
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
8 ounces (2 sticks) butter, at room temperature, cut into small pieces
3/4 cup dark brown sugar, firmly packed
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
8 ounces coarsely chopped bittersweet chocolate (pieces about the size of large chocolate chips)
1 1/2 cups coarsely chopped unsalted macadamia nuts
1 quart coffee ice cream

Steps:

  • In the large bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle or beaters, on medium speed soften the butter. Add the brown and granulated sugars. When the sugar is incorporated, raise the speed to high and continue to beat until fluffy, scraping down the sides of the bowl and under the beaters with a rubber spatula, as necessary. Lower the speed to medium and add the eggs, 1 at a time, and the vanilla, again scraping down the sides of the bowl as necessary. Turn the speed to low, gradually pour in the flour mixture, and beat until just combined. Add the chocolate and nuts and again beat until just combined.
  • Sift together the flour, cocoa, espresso, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  • Scrape the dough out of the bowl and wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate 2 to 3 hours, up to overnight. Position the rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 1 or 2 baking trays with parchment paper.
  • Remove the dough from the refrigerator and divide into mounds, about 1-ounce each (the size of an unshelled walnut). Roll between the palms of your hands, forming 60 to 62 balls of dough. Arrange the balls on the prepared trays, about 2 inches apart. Bake until slightly firm to the touch, 13 to 15 minutes, reversing the trays from front to back after 7 minutes to ensure even baking. Place the trays on racks to cool. After a few minutes, transfer the cookies to the racks with a wide metal spatula to continue to cool. If reusing the baking tray, cool slightly before arranging the balls of dough on it.
  • Take the ice cream out of the freezer and let soften slightly for 10 minutes. When the cookies have cooled, spread half of the cookies with some ice cream. Top with another cookie and press lightly. Wrap in plastic wrap and freeze until firm.

FUDGY MACADAMIA NUT SANDWICH COOKIES



FUDGY MACADAMIA NUT SANDWICH COOKIES image

Categories     Cookies     Chocolate     Dessert     Bake

Yield approx. 25 sandwich cookies

Number Of Ingredients 18

Cookie:
1/2 c granulated sugar
1/2 c powdered sugar
1 c butter
1/2 tsp cream of tartar
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla
1 egg
2 1/4 c flour
1 c chopped pecans
fudge filling:
1/2 c heavy cream
1/4 c light corn syrup
6 oz chopped semisweet chocolate
3 Tbsp coffee liquer
pinch salt
1 Tbsp butter

Steps:

  • Cookie:Preheat oven to 350. Blend together the dry ingredients and set aside. Beat the sugar, butter and vanilla together with an electric mixer until very light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the egg and mix well. Add the flour mixture and mix just till blended well-do not overmix. Blend in the chopped nuts by hand. Using your hands or a small disher, make 1 inch balls of dough. Roll them in sugar and place on parchment lined baking sheets. Flatten the tops, using your hands or the bottom of a glass. Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until lightly browned. Remove to rack and cool thoroughly before filling. For filling: In a 1 qt saucepan, mix cream, corn syrup, chocolate, and salt together. Bring to a boil over medium heat until chocolate is melted. Continue to cook over reduced heat x 5minutes. Remove from heat and stir in liquer and butter. When filling is warm and thickening, dip bottom of one cooled cookie into filling and top it with the bottom of a second cookie. Allow to set, then stripe the top with filling (rewarming if necessary), drizzling from a spoon or using a squeeze bottle.

Tips:

  • Use a stand mixer with the paddle attachment to evenly cream together the butter, sugar, and eggs; this will help to ensure that the cookies are light and fluffy.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking; this will help the cookies to hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Use a cookie scoop to ensure that the cookies are all the same size and shape; this will help them to bake evenly.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are just beginning to brown; this will help to ensure that the cookies are cooked through but still soft and chewy.
  • Let the cookies cool on a wire rack before filling them with the ganache; this will help to prevent the ganache from melting.
  • If the ganache is too thick, you can thin it out with a little bit of milk or cream.
  • You can also use other nuts in this recipe, such as walnuts, pecans, or almonds.

Conclusion:

These fudgy macadamia nut sandwich cookies are the perfect treat for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With their rich, chocolatey flavor and chewy texture, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
