STEPS
INGREDIENTS
Sift the flour into a large bowl
Sift the cocoa powder into the same bowl
Add 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda
Add 1/4 teaspoon baking powder and salt
Add caster sugar
Mix until...
... It looks like this!
Add your softened butter (all 1cup plus 2tbsp of it)
Rub butter in until it is in little crumbs
Add your egg
Stir until it comes together
Use your hands to bring it into a ball
Grease and line two baking trays
Roll out the dough and cut it into disks. I made mine huge and got 10 (5 when sandwiched)
To get ones the size of a normal oreo, roll a teaspoon of dough into a ball and flatten it gently, to get about 40 (20 when sandwiched)
Put your cookies on the trays
Set oven to 190 degrees c
Set timer to 9 mins
Just time to clear up!
Make some butter icing (apologies no instructions for this apart from use half and half butter and vegetable shortening, or block margarine)
Add food colouring and vanilla extract to the filling
Once the cookies get out, leave to cool before filling
Pipe or spread some filling on on one of your cookies, how much is up to you
Grab another cookie and sandwich together! Simples :)
Repeat with all the others
Done!
