HIDDEN MICKEY HALLOWEEN COOKIES
INGREDIENTS:
- 1 cup (2 sticks) of unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
- 3/4 cup of sugar
- 1 tsp of vanilla extract
- 1 cup of semisweet chocolate chips, melted and slightly cooled
- 1 egg
- 1 1/2 cups of unbleached all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup of cocoa powder (Dutch-processed recommended)
- 1 tsp of kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp of baking soda
Filling for Hidden Mickey Halloween Cookies
- 1/2 cup of unsalted butter, softened
- 1 2/3 cup of confectioners sugar
- 1 tsp of vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp of milk
- Pinch of salt
- Food coloring (purple, green, orange)
INSTRUCTIONS:
- In a medium bow, whisk together the butter and sugar until well combined. Whisk is the vanilla and melted chocolate. Add in the egg and whisk until combined.
- In another bowl, stir flour, cocoa, salt, and baking soda until combined. Stir flour mixture into the chocolate mixture. Let the dough sit for an hour to firm up.
- Transfer the dough tot he sheet of wax paper. Shape into a log about 2 1/2 inches of diameter. Roll log in wax paper and shape as you roll to maintain a smooth cylinder. Twist ends of paper to help keep the shape compact. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until firm. (If log flattens on one side, rotate every 30 minutes or so to maintain a round shape).
- Heat oven to 325 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Cut dough in 1/4 inches thick slices and place on prepared baking sheet.
- Use a 2″ round pastry cutter to cut out a smooth circle for each slice.
- Cut out a Mickey shape on half of the slices (in the middle of each) using a 3/4″ round pastry cutter for the head and the back of a large, round pastry tip for the ears.
- Bake for about 15 minutes or until cookies are firm to the touch.
- Cool and prepare the filling. In a mixer, beat the butter until smooth and creamy. Add sugar and vanilla and beat until smooth. Add milk and salt, and continue beating until smooth again. Then add preferred food coloring.
- Place the filling into a pastry bag and pipe filling on the bottom of the plain cookies and sandwich Mickey cutout cookies on top.
