Double Chocolate Blossom Cookies Recipe

Double Chocolate Blossom Cookies Recipe :-These chocolate blossom cookies, a combination between peanut butter blossoms and crinkle cookies, are rich and ideal for Valentine’s Day, Christmas, or any day. Chocolatey and delightful, they remind me of soft, chewy brownies in cookie form.
This soft cookie dough needs to refrigerate for four hours (yikes!). Because the dough is too sticky when mixed, chilling it will make it rollable and prevent your cookies from spreading in the oven.

Double Chocolate Blossom Cookies Recipe

What You Need?

  • Chocolate flowers require only a few ingredients, most of which you probably already have. Some important ones:

1 . Sugar

  • Granulated and brown sugar (light or dark brown) will be used in the dough and powdered sugar for rolling. For rolling, you can use coarse or plain granulated sugar instead of powdered sugar

2 . Cocoa powder

  • I prefer natural cocoa powder. Dutch process cocoa works, but it tastes darker.

 

3 . Baking powder

  • These cookies need one spoonful of baking powder.

4 . Butter

  • Butter should be softened but not melted. We add salt, so use unsalted butter.

 

5 . Hershey kisses

  • Milk chocolate kisses are basic, but you can get creative (there are so many types!) Peppermint kisses would make this recipe festive for Christmas!

  • Twelve tablespoons of softened unsalted butter

Instructions:

  2. Using 12 tablespoons (170 g) of unsalted butter, 1 ½ cups (300 g) of granulated sugar, and ½ cup (100 g) of either light or dark brown sugar, prepare the recipe.
  3. Mix in the vanilla essence after adding the eggs one at a time while stirring until they are completely incorporated into the mixture.
    four big eggs, two teaspoons of vanilla essence total
  4. A second bowl should be used to combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt by whisking them together.
  5. Two and a half cups of all-purpose flour (312 grammes), one cup of natural cocoa powder (100 grammes), one tablespoon of baking powder, and half a teaspoon of salt
  6. The dry ingredients should be added to the wet ingredients in a gradual manner until they are thoroughly blended.
  7. Place the bowl in the refrigerator for at least four hours or overnight, covering it with plastic wrap.
  8. After cooling, prepare the baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper and preheating the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
  9. Make balls of dough that are approximately 1 ½ tablespoons in size and then thoroughly coat them in powdered sugar.
    250 grammes of powdered sugar, or two cups
  10. Transfer to a baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius) for ten to twelve minutes, taking care not to overbake.

How to Make Chocolate Blossoms:

  1. The butter and sugars should be creamed together until they are completely mixed.
  2. Following the addition of each egg in turn, whisk in the vanilla extract.
  3. The dry components should be mixed together in a separate bowl, and then they should be gently incorporated into the wet ingredients. The way I like to do this is in three stages.
  4. Before moving on, make sure the dough is covered and chilled in the refrigerator for at least four hours.
  5. The dough should be scooped and then rolled into balls that are approximately 1 ½ tablespoons in size.
  6. After rolling the dough balls in powdered sugar, place them on baking pans lined with parchment paper at a distance of two inches apart.
  7. Hershey kisses should be pressed into the centres of each cookie after they have been baked for ten to twelve minutes at a temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  8. Before you enjoy the cookies, make sure they have completely cooled down on their baking pans.
