First recipe is a selection of chocolate and vanilla cookies made with simply a CAKE MIX. But i have plenty of simple baking ingredients so ill just follow a regular cookie recipe, and just aim to do 1 cookie design because I aint wanna be here all day. I'm going to do the checkerboard looking one because that seems iconic!
So we've got 3 cups flour, 1 cup butter, 1 cup sugar, 2 eggs, 1tsp baking powder, 1tsp vanilla. And some cocoa for half of the dough.
Hello stand mixer! I expect we'll be seeing more of you in this challenge. When its mixed enough, we split these in half and add 1/3 cup of cocoa powder to the half and mix it some more. I guess it will be drier, but... eh, probably fine?
ooh look at how cocoa-y that looks! Using the aid of a tupperware box and some slapping we've managed to get two roughly matching rectangles, you want them looking 1h:2w ratio so theyll be square when cut. BUT FIRST you can refridgerate them for about an hour so that they're much less floppy, then you can adjust them as much as you like. Then you slice the rectangles and arrange them all... yknow.. checkerboard-y.
oh man these are kinda big already, they're gonna come out pretty chunky lets hope they dont fuse together. Baked for about 7-10mins at 190c
Stylish AND delicious! These are a simple buttery cookie recipe, so nothing that adventurous but who can say no to a fresh homemade cookie?
