Breton Shortbread Chocolate Cookies

Difficulty:

Preparation time: 2h.

Those cookies were really awesome. I love the shortbread texture and they tasted good too. I guess if you are not used to it, they might seem a bit dry, but they are ideal to be served with tea or coffee. You can try to add more or less chocolate on the cookies too. I usually like to prepare a really intense chocolate icing, but it’s up to your taste. Let me know how you liked them!!

Ingredients

• 150g of flour
• 75g of butter
• 60g of sugar
• 3 yolks
• 1 tablespoon of cocoa
• 1 tablespoon of baking powder
• salt
• 125g of dark chocolate
• 150ml of milk

Instructions

1. Melt slightly the butter and mix it with the sugar and the yolks.
2. Mix the flour, the salt, the cocoa and the baking powder. Add it all to the butter preparation.
3. Mix gently the dough and make a roll with it. Leave it in a fridge for about 30min.
4. Cut the dough roll in slices and bake them in the pre-heated oven for 15min at 190ºC.
5. Boil the milk and then pour it slowly on the chocolate. Mix until it is totally melted.
6. Leave it in the fridge for about 1h and then use it to cover the cookies.

Enjoy!!
