Steps to make My lil' Shortbread Cookies with Chocolate:
- Brown Butter- - My family gets excited when I'm using that fancy French word - -beurre noisette- - Means mom's making her Little Shortbread Cookies! - And why you ask, because it adds a deep, nutty flavor to myO cookies! 💚 - To make brown butter simply start melting butter over medium heat. - - We use grass fed cow butter…no gmo's. Please only use real butter people, stop outting chemicals in your awesome bodies! - - Use a pan with a light-colored bottom so you can keep track of the color. - - I used my favorite old kitchen witch spoon, I like to add in some love & magic.
- Making the Cookie Dough- - Grab a nice sized bowl & add your 1 stick of butter, 1/2 cup of sugar. I used an old potato masher to cream my butter and sugar. - Stir in brown butter, vanilla & salt. - - By the way if your lucky enough or flippin spoiled and have a Kitchen Aid Mixer then super awesome. - Yeah, I'm jealous. - I don't have one…- So I workout my guns! - - Now start by adding your flour- Just a half a cup at a time. - It's a shortbread cookie- so expect a sandy texture to your cookie mix. - No Worries.
- Forming the Cookie Dough- I could not find my plastic wrap, so I grabbed a large baggie, cut out the seams, then used it to form my shortbread cookies. It was fun, kinda like Play-Doh. Thou next time I'm going to roll them out and use cookie cutters Cut then about 1/2 inch or less. Place on a cookie sheet. Bake at 350° for about 12 to 15 minutes. Place your bad-ass cookies on a cooling rack.
- My Chocolate Filling- Grab another bowl and add 1 stick of butter (room temp.), 1/2 cup of shortening, 1/2 cup cocoa powder, 2 cups of powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon of vanilla (used my homemade vanilla).
- Mix and blend well….Again with the KitchenAid Mixer or just my two little hands. Used a rubber spatula to spoon the filling into baggie with a icing tip. Just pipe it onto each shortbread cookie.
- Time to add the Naughty Chocolate Filling- Glab a baggie fill it with your filling/ frosting, cut the tip off just a tiny bit, give the baggie a whirl- a bit of a squeeze and then your filling will come out No need for fancy pastry bags and tips. Sit back, enjoy the view and have a cookie or 2! 💚
