- For the Biscuits:
- 140 g all-purpose flour
- 40 g corn starch
- 40 g cocoa powder
- 1/8 tsp kosher salt or fine sea salt
- 110 g butter at room temperature, unsalted
- 110 g superfine sugar
- 1/4 cup milk whole
- sugar sprinkling
- For the fillings:
- 3 oz butter half stick, unsalted, at room temperature
- 6 oz confectioners sugar
- and either:
- 3 oz milk chocolate plain, 50-60% cocoa solids, or
- 4 oz peanut butter smooth, or
- 1 tsp matcha green tea powder
- 2 tsp milk whole
Instructions
- Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicon mat.
- Sift the flour, corn starch, and cocoa together. Mix in the salt.
- Cream the butter and sugar together in a food mixer for 2 minutes until fluffy.
- Add in the flour and mix until combined.
- Add just enough milk to form a stiff dough ball.
- Roll the dough to 1/8" and cut or stamp into rectangles 60mm x 30mm or 2" x 1". Stamp if you like, or if not just prick holes across the biscuit with a skewer or fork.
- Add sprinkling sugar, if using.
- Preheat oven to 350F.
- Chill biscuits for 30m in fridge, then bake for 12-15m. Once baked, cool on a wire rack.
- To make filling:
- Cream the butter in a food mixer until fluffy, and then gradually mix in the confectioner's sugar.
- If making the chocolate version, heat chocolate in a bowl over a hot water bath until just melted, then cool to room temperature. Add to the butter and sugar and mix until combined.
- If making the peanut butter variation, add the peanut butter into the butter and sugar.
- If making the matcha version, dissolve the matcha powder in the milk, then add to the other ingredients.
- Sandwich two biscuits together with a little of the filling, and store refrigerated until ready to serve. Biscuits should keep for 3-4 days.
