How to Make KINDER NEW YORK COOKIES
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
- In a large bowl, mix together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
- In another bowl, cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then stir in the vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined to avoid overmixing.
- Fold in the chopped Kinder chocolate, milk chocolate, and white chocolate gently.
- Drop spoonfuls of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving space between each cookie to allow for spreading.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still soft.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Substitutions & Additions
Feel free to get creative! Here are some ideas:
- Swap out the chocolate types for your favorites, like peanut butter or dark chocolate.
- Add nuts or dried fruit for an extra crunch and flavor.
- If you’re short on time, pre-made cookie dough works in a pinch!
Tips for Success
- Common mistake: Overmixing the dough can lead to tough cookies. Mix until just combined.
- Prep-ahead idea: You can make the dough in advance and freeze it for up to 3 months. Just scoop the dough onto a baking sheet and freeze until solid, then transfer to a bag. When ready to bake, just add a couple of extra minutes to the baking time.
How to Store KINDER NEW YORK COOKIES
To keep your cookies fresh, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. For longer storage, you can freeze them for up to 3 months. Just make sure to separate layers with parchment paper to prevent sticking!
FAQs
- Can I use whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour? Yes, but it may change the texture slightly.
- What if I don’t have Kinder chocolate? You can use any chocolate you like, but Kinder adds a unique creaminess.
- How do I make these cookies chewier? Try adding an extra egg yolk for a chewier texture.
