Raspberry, Pistachio & White Chocolate Loaded Cookies
Servings: 8
Ingredients
Cookies
- 125 g Butter - Softened, NOT melted
- 100 g Soft Light Brown Sugar
- 2 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 50 g Golden Syrup
- 1 Medium Egg
- 300 g Plain Flour
- 10 g Cornflour
- 1 tsp Baking Powder
- 0.5 tsp Bicarbonate of Soda
- 100 g White Chocolate Chips
- 40 g Chopped Pistachios
- 5 g Freeze Dried Raspberry Pieces
To Decorate
- 160 g Pistachio Creme
- 50 g White Chocolate
- 1 tbsp Freeze Dried Raspberry Pieces
- 1 tbsp Chopped Pistachios
Instructions
- Beat the softened butter, sugar & vanilla extract together until well combined and no lumps of butter are visible.
- Add the golden syrup & egg and mix well.
- Add the flour, cornflour, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda, chocolate chips, chopped pistachios & dried raspberry pieces and mix to form your dough.
- Divide your dough into 8 portions. Roll into balls and put onto a lined baking tray. Flatten each one a bit so it looks like a hockey puck!
- Pop into the freezer for a couple of hours before baking. This isn't absolutely necessary but they cook better - see notes above!
- Pre-heat your oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas mark 6.
- Place your cookie pucks on a lined baking tray.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, then remove from the oven. Use a spoon to carefully make a little dip in the middle of the top of each cookie - this is where your pistachio creme will go later!
- Leave to cool on the tray.
- Once completely cooled, put a spoonful of pistachion creme in each of the dips you made earlier.
- Decorate each cookie with a drizzle of white chocolate and some chopped pistachios & dried raspberry pieces.
- Enjoy!
Notes
- If you follow the recipe exactly, the cookies shouldn't spread too much, but if you want to be certain they're all uniform, I highly recommend these cookie rings!
- Can be stored on the counter for up to 3 days. Can be stored in an air tight container in the fridge. Allow to come to room temp before eating!
- Cooking time will vary depending on your oven. I recommend getting an oven thermometer to check internal temperature before baking as a lot of domestic ovens can be quite far out.
