Ingredients

Servings

For the cookies:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour plus 2 tablespoons
  • 1/2 cup Dutch-process cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup malted-milk powder plain
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt coarse
  • 1 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1 egg large
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/4 crème fraîche or sour cream

For the filling:

  • 10 ounces semi-sweet chocolate coarsely chopped
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter cut into small pieces
  • 1 cup malted-milk powder
  • 3 ounces cream cheese room temperature
  • 1/4 cup half-and-half plus 2 tablespoons
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract pure

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Sift flour, cocoa powder, malted-milk powder, baking soda and salt.
  2. Mix butter and sugar on medium speed until pale and fluffy. Mix in egg, vanilla and creme fraiche (or sour cream) and 3 tablespoons hot water. Reduce speed to low and mix in flour mixture.
  3. Space tablespoon-size balls of dough 3.5 inches apart on parchment-lined baking sheets. Bake until flat and just firm. 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool on parchment on wire racks.
  4. Melt chocolate and butter in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water, stirring. Let cool. Mix malted-milk powder and cream cheese on medium speed until smooth. Gradually mix in half-and-half, chocolate mixture and vanilla. Refrigerate, covered, until thick, about 30 mins. Mix on high speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes.
  5. Assemble cookies: Spread a heaping tablespoon filling on the bottom of 1 cookie. Sandwich with another cookie. Repeat. Sandwiches can be refrigerated between layers of parchment in an air-tight container up to 3 days.
