Best 6 Ganache Filled Chocolate Cookies From Scratch Recipes

GANACHE FILLED CHOCOLATE COOKIES - FROM SCRATCH

Steps:

• Ganache:.
• Bring the cream and sugar to a light boil, being careful not to burn it.
• Add butter, vanilla, and chocolate chips.
• Stir constantly until all chocolate is melted and mixture is completely smooth. Be careful not to burn it.
• Place in a covered container (I reuse 8-16 oz jars) and refrigerate overnight.
• Cookie Dough:.
• In large mixer bowl; cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
• Add eggs and vanilla; beat well.
• In a separate bowl, combine 2 cups flour, cocoa, baking powder & soda, and salt; gradually blend into creamed butter mixture. Continue adding flour, 1 tbs at a time, until the dough becomes a smooth, well combined ball. Allow dough to chill at least 3 hours, but overnight is preferred.
• Once dough and ganache have chilled overnight, start by prepping the ganache balls.
• Create 1/2 inch balls of chocolate. If desired, roll balls of chocolate in powdered sugar, finely ground coffee, or a 50/50 mixture of the two.
• Now, create a 1 inch ball of cookie dough, then flatten it out to a 1/4 thick, palm sized pancake. Place a ganache ball in the center of the cookie dough, and wrap it up so the ganache is surrounded in dough.
• Place dough balls 2 inches apart on a parchment lined baking sheet, and bake at 375 for 10 minutes. Allow to cool at least 10 minutes, and be careful of hot ganache when eating warm from the oven.

CHOCOLATE GANACHE

Steps:

• Place chocolate chips in a small bowl. In a small saucepan, bring cream just to a boil. Pour over chocolate; whisk until smooth., For a pourable ganache, cool, stirring occasionally, until mixture reaches 85°-90° and is slightly thickened, about 40 minutes. Pour over cake, allowing some to drape down the sides. Spread ganache with a spatula if necessary to evenly coat, working quickly before it thickens. Let stand until set., For spreadable ganache, chill, stirring occasionally, until mixture reaches a spreading consistency. Spread over cake.

Whisk together the flour and cocoa in a small bowl. Beat half of the flour mixture into the butter mixture until well incorporated. Beat in the remaining flour. Divide dough in half.
• On a lightly floured board, roll each half of the dough into a rectangle. Cut each large rectangle into 1x3 inch rectangles. Place cookies on prepared baking sheets, 2 inches apart. Bake until firm, 10 to 15 minutes. Let cookies stand on baking sheets for 5 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely.
• While the cookies are baking, make the filling. Heat chocolate chips in a small saucepan on lowest heat. Stir until chocolate is almost completely melted. Remove from heat; stir until smooth. Allow to cool to room temperature. Beat 1 cup confectioners' sugar and 1/2 cup butter in a large bowl until smooth. Scrape the melted chocolate into the bowl; beat well.
