Time 1h25m

Yield 20 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup Dutch-process cocoa powder, plus more for dusting (optional)
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup malted milk powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
12 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces, at room temperature
4 ounces white chocolate, coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons malted milk powder
Pinch of salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup heavy cream

Steps:

  • Make the cookies: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Combine the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, malted milk powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. With a mixer on medium-high speed, add the vanilla and then the butter, a few pieces at a time, and mix until the dough looks like wet sand and holds together when pinched, about 5 minutes. Scrape the dough onto a sheet of parchment paper and pat into a 1/2-inch-thick round. Cover with another sheet of parchment paper and refrigerate until the dough is slightly firm, about 10 minutes.
  • Roll out the dough between the parchment sheets to 1/4 inch thick. Peel off the top sheet and cut the dough into squares or rounds using 1 1/2-to-2-inch cookie cutters. Reroll the scraps and repeat. (Refrigerate the dough if it gets too soft.) Place the cookies 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheets.
  • Bake until the cookies are set and no longer shiny, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer to a rack to cool completely.
  • Prepare the filling: Combine the white chocolate, malted milk powder, salt and vanilla in a large bowl. Bring the cream to a simmer in a saucepan over medium heat, then pour over the white chocolate mixture and stir until smooth. Refrigerate until cold, about 25 minutes. Beat with a mixer until thick and spreadable, about 1 minute.
  • Spread about 2 teaspoons of the filling on the underside of half of the cookies, then sandwich with the remaining cookies. Dust with cocoa powder, if desired. Store in the refrigerator up to 5 days.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my cookies turned out really flat. I think I might have overmixed the dough.

These cookies were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more butter next time.

I'm not a huge fan of malt, but I really enjoyed these cookies. The chocolate flavor is really strong and the malt flavor is just a hint in the background.

These cookies are so easy to make and they always turn out perfectly. I love that I can make them ahead of time and freeze them for later.

The cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but the filling was delicious. I think I'll try making them again with less sugar.

These chocolate malt sandwiches were an absolute delight! The combination of chocolate and malt is a classic for a reason, and these cookies perfectly captured that flavor combination. They were easy to make and turned out perfectly.
