Ingredients

  • Butter ½ cup
  • Powdered Sugar ¾ cup
  • Wheat flour 1 ½ cup
  • Baking powder 1 TSP
  • Salt pinch
  • Cocoa powder 4 tbsp
  • Vanilla essence 1 tsp
  • Milk 2 tbsp

Chocolate Cream

  • Butter ¼ cup
  • Icing sugar 1 cup + 1 tbsp
  • Cocoa Powder 3 tbsp
  • Milk few drops

Instructions

  • Sieve wheat flour, baking powder, cocoa powder, salt and keep it aside.
  • Take butter in a bowl and beat it nicely for few secs.
  • Add the powdered sugar in batches and beat till it combines and mixture is soft and creamy.
  • Add the sieved dry ingredients in batches and combine nicely.
  • Add 1 tsp vanilla essence and mix.
  • Now add 1 tbsp of milk at a time and form smooth dough. Add milk only when required.
  • Line the baking tray with parchment paper and keep it ready
  • Roll the dough between butter sheet into rectangle with ⅛ inch thickness and trim the edges. Cut them to small rectangle shape using knife and place them on baking tray.
  • If you are finding difficult to roll you can refrigerate the dough for sometime. I always roll without refrigeration.
  • Using skewers make holes in the biscuit similar to what we get from store. Sprinkle little sugar.
  • Preheat the oven to 160°C for ten minutes.
  • Bake the biscuits in the same temperature for 10-12 minutes.
  • Remove them from tray and cool them

Preparing Chocolate Cream

  • Cream the butter for few secs
  • Now add sugar in batches and beat nicely till soft.
  • Add the cocoa powder and beat nicely.
  • If the mixture is too dry add few drops of milk to adjust consistency.
  • This cream should be stiff than normal buttercream we use for Icing.

Assembling

  • Take each biscuit and apply the chocolate cream and sandwich with other biscuit.

Notes

Roll the dough in medium thickness. You can use maida/ half wheat and maida or whole wheat flour for this recipe. Add only milk if required to form dough. Make sure chocolate cream is stiff and not very soft.
