yes im pissed! i lost all pictures i shot from few days ago, something happened with either my camera's memory card or the card reader. thanks god i could re-shoot these chocolate thumbprint cookies though i've lost the mood of styling them so they could beutifully photographed.
anyways, im so pissed!
talking about chocolate thumbprint cookies, these cookies are soo buttery-goodness-GOOD! it had the texture of shortbread before i left them all night on an open plate, then the texture tranformed from shortbread texture to soft sugar cookies texture. not bad.. stil good.. just not the texture i looked for. anyway, next time i'll use cookies flour instead of all-purpose flour to achieve a more crumbly cookies. or change the chocolate part into jam so it'll be jam thumbprint.
oh whatever! I LOVE THESE COOKIES!
Makes 2 dozen
Ingredients
* 12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter
* 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
* 1/4 teaspoon salt
* 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
* 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
* 4 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
* 1 1/2 teaspoons light corn syrup
Directions
1. Heat oven to 350 degrees. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together 1 stick butter, sugar, salt, and vanilla on medium-high speed until smooth, about 2 minutes. Beat in flour, beginning on low speed and increasing to medium high.
2. Roll dough by teaspoonfuls into balls, and place 1 inch apart on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes, remove from oven, and press thumb into tops of cookies to make indentations. Return to oven, and bake until light brown on the edges, 7 to 9 minutes more. Remove to a wire rack to cool.
3. Combine chocolate, 4 tablespoons butter, and corn syrup in a small heat-proof bowl. Set over a pot of simmering water; stir occasionally until melted and smooth. Allow to cool slightly. When cookies are cool, fill the thumbprints with the chocolate mixture.
