Best 5 Triple Chocolate Shortbread Drops Recipes

WHIPPED SHORTBREAD DROP COOKIES

Steps:

• In the bowl of an electric stand mixer, beat the butter until smooth, add the flour, powdered sugar and vanilla. Mix until dough is smooth and butter is incorporated into the mix evenly.
• Measure the dough by Tablespoons and place on the parchment lined cookie sheet 2 inches a part. You can decorate with nuts or chocolate chips at this time by placing them in the center of the dough.
• Place cookie sheet in your preheated 350 degree oven and bake for approximately 13 - 15 minutes or until the edges are light brown. Being careful not to over bake them and have the edges too brown. Remove from oven and let cool on cookie sheet 5 minutes, transfer to a cooling rack.
• After cookies have cooled you can glaze them, dip half of the cookie in melted chocolate or sandwich them together with a fruit preserve in the middle or enjoy their buttery goodness without embellishments.

CARAMEL CHOCOLATE SHORTBREADS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9-inch square baking pan with aluminum foil, leaving about a 2-inch overhang on 2 sides. Spread the coconut in a single layer on a baking sheet and set aside.
• Beat the butter, vanilla and salt with an electric mixer on medium speed in a large bowl until smooth and creamy. Add the confectioners' sugar and mix on low until just incorporated. Beat in the flour in 2 batches to make a smooth dough.
• Lightly flour your hands and press the dough into the prepared baking pan. Bake the shortbread until the edges are firm and the top is dry, 28 to 30 minutes. Top the shortbread with the caramels in an even layer. Return to the oven along with the baking sheet of coconut and cook, tossing the coconut once, until the caramels are melted and the coconut is golden, about 10 minutes.
• Spray the back of a spoon with cooking spray and use it to spread the caramel all over the shortbread. Sprinkle with the chocolate and let sit until the chips are melted, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with the toasted coconut and let cool completely, about 1 hour.
• Using the foil overhang as handles, lift the shortbread out of the pan and cut into 12 pieces.

TRIPLE CHOCOLATE SHORTBREAD DROPS

Steps:

• Toast flours under broiler for 7-11 minutes (it gives the cookies a nuttier flavor-- you can skip this step if you wish).
• Cream butter and sugars.
• Add flours and then the other ingredients.
• Drop onto parchment lined baking sheets.
• Bake @ 300 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until golden on bottom edges.

DOUBLE CHOCOLATE SHORTBREADS

Steps:

• Mix the butter and sugar together with a wooden spoon. Stir in the flour and cocoa, followed by the chocolate chips - you'll probably need to mix it together with your hands at this stage. Halve the dough and roll each piece into a log about 5cm thick. Wrap in cling film and chill for 1 hr or for several days. Can be frozen for up to 1 month.
• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Slice logs into 1cm-thick rounds, transfer to a baking tray lined with baking parchment and bake for 10-12 mins. Cool on the tray.

TRIPLE CHOCOLATE DROPS

Steps:

• Combine flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt in a medium-size bowl. Set aside. In a large bowl, beat butter, sugars, instant coffee and vanilla together until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in melted chocolate.
• Stir in flour mixture 1/2 cup at a time, blending well after each addition. Stir in chocolate chips and walnuts, if desired. Cover and freeze or refrigerate until very firm, one to four hours.
• When ready to bake preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease four large baking sheets. Divide dough into sixths; refrigerate all but one portion.
• With floured hands, roll slightly rounded teaspoons of unrefrigerated dough into 1-inch balls. Arrange, 1 inch apart, on baking sheets. Repeat with remaining five portions of dough, keeping dough you're not working on refrigerated.
• Bake 7 to 9 minutes, or until barely brown on the bottom. Do not overbake. Cookies will seem very soft, but will firm as they cool. Cool cookies on racks.
• Spoon about 1 teaspoon of glaze on each cookie and spread with back of the spoon. If desired, lightly sprinkle each cookie with grated chocolate. Let glaze set before storing cookies in an airtight container for up to one week. They can be frozen.
