Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup of unsalted butter and 1 cup of granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Beat in 2 large eggs, one at a time, followed by 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Gradually add this mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  5. Using a cookie scoop or two spoons, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
  7. While the cookies are cooling, make the pastry cream by whisking together 1 cup of milk, 1/3 cup of sugar, 3 tablespoons of cornstarch, and a pinch of salt in a saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring continuously until thickened. Remove from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Let it cool completely.
  8. For the chocolate ganache, heat 1 cup of heavy cream in a small saucepan until just simmering. Pour it over 6 ounces of chopped semi-sweet chocolate in a bowl. Let it sit for a few minutes, then stir until smooth.
  9. Once the cookies are completely cool, spread a generous layer of pastry cream on the underside of half the cookies. Top with the remaining cookies to create sandwiches.
  10. Drizzle the chocolate ganache over the top of each cookie sandwich. Allow it to set for a few minutes before enjoying!

Nutrition

Keywords: If your dough feels too soft, chill it in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before baking. Use high-quality chocolate for the ganache for the best flavor. You can also sprinkle some sea salt on top of the ganache for a salted chocolate finish.
