Chocolate brownie mummy cookies Recipe

METHOD

• 1

  For the cookies:Preheat the oven to 180 ºC and line two large baking sheets with parchment/baking paper (this recipe makes 10-11 large cookies and it's best to scoop all of them onto the baking sheets straight away).

• 2

  Place the Cadbury Darkmilk and Dairy Milk chocolate in a heat-proof bowl. Melt the chocolate in the microwave or over a pot of gently simmering water. Stir occasionally until fully melted and smooth. Set aside to cool for a few minutes.

• 3

  In a second bowl, combine the eggs, vanilla extract, sugars and salt. Mix with a hand whisk until pale and fluffy (alternatively, for this step you can use a stand mixer on medium speed).

• 4

  Add the liquid mix into the bowl with the melted chocolate. Then add the softened butter, oil, cocoa powder, flour and baking powder. Gently combine all the ingredients using a hand whisk. Ensure there are no lumps of dry flour left at the end.

• 5

  Use an ice cream scoop to form the cookies (if you are using a small ice cream scoop, add 2 scoops of mixture on top of each other). Prepare all the cookies at the same time and leave enough space (approx. 4-5 cm) between them as they will spread while baking. You should get 10-11 large cookies.

• 6

  Bake in a preheated oven at 180 ºC for 11-13 minutes until shiny and cracked on top.

• 7

  Allow the cookies to cool for 8-10 minutes on the baking sheets, then gently transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

• 8

  To decorate:Place the Cadbury White chocolate in a heat-proof bowl. Melt the chocolate in the microwave or over a pot of gently simmering water. Stir occasionally until fully melted and smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.

• 9

  Using a spoon, drizzle the white chocolate over the cookies, creating the stripes of your mummy cookies.

• 10

  Finish with the candy eyes white the chocolate is still soft.

• 11

  Allow the white chocolate to set at room temperature or in the fridge.

• 12

  Store the cookies in a single layer until ready to serve.
