RE: 🍪Inside-Out Stuffed Twix Cookies🍪 (FOOD PHOTO SHOOT)
Thanks for your interest @alexpmorris! So glad to share it!
Ingredients
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened
1/2 cup palm oil or organic vegetable shortening
2 cups sugar
1 large egg + 4 yolks
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking soda
4 cups all purpose flour
36-40 chocolate covered caramels (or rolos)(I used these homemade ones
Instructions
- Cream butter, shortening, and sugar in a large mixing bowl. Beat in egg and yolks, then soda, salt, and vanilla. 2. Add the flour a little at a time and mix until dough is well combined.
roll the dough into 1 inch, about 1 heaping tablespoon each, balls and place them about 2 inches apart on parchment or silicone lined baking sheets. Use you thumb to make a well in the center of each dough ball and stuff a chocolate caramel inside. Squish the sides up a little and roll the dough around it to cover. - Place cookie back on tray and push down slightly then repeat with all cookies. Place the tray in freezer (if it won't fit you can chill the balls on a smaller plate and then put them back on tray) for about 25 minutes to get cold.
- While the balls chill, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 C). After 25 minutes, bake for 7 - 9 minutes until the edges are just starting to turn a light tan. Remove and let them cool for at least 5 minutes them loosen from pan and either let them cool completely or eat them while they're still hot and melty!
Notes
I should probably also mention that these do not all come out perfectly shaped. Know that some of them will have a little filling ooze out and candy, or possibly even burn, on the pan. What I do is simply let them cool on the tray and cut the cookies away from the runaway filling (p.s. It's really good once it candies like that; baker's privilege!) If some of them get extra flat you can try using a spatula to sort of push the cookie back into shape by scooting in the sides.
thanks for the recipe @gringalicious! :D I'll get right on this, so long as I don't eat up all the rolos before I even start! lol
