Ingredients
  

For the Cookie Dough
  • 1 cup Unsalted Butter Provides richness and moisture; if using salted butter, reduce the added salt.
  • 1 cup Granulated Sugar Sweetens the cookies and contributes to their structure.

  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Adds delightful flavor; consider almond extract for a unique twist.

  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda Enhances spread and helps achieve beautiful browning.
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt Balances sweetness while enhancing the overall flavor.

Method
 

Directions
  1. Prepare the Cookie Dough: Beat the unsalted butter and granulated sugar together until fluffy and pale. Add large eggs and vanilla extract, mixing well. Gradually incorporate flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until a soft dough forms. Chill the dough for 30 minutes.
  2. Bake the Cookies: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Scoop tablespoons of chilled dough onto baking sheets lined with parchment, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 12 minutes until edges are lightly golden. Allow to cool completely on sheets.
  3. Make the Cream Filling: Whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and a splash of vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip; keep it creamy.
  4. Prepare the Chocolate Glaze: Melt semi-sweet chocolate chips with vegetable oil in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 30-second intervals until smooth and glossy. Stir gently.
  5. Assemble the Cookies: Fill one cooled cookie generously with cream filling, place another cookie on top. Drizzle chocolate glaze over cookies, letting it drip down the sides for an elegant finish.
