It is another of my neighbours recipes and I was rather happy when she first popped round with some of these, very moorish! I have since made these a fair few times (the raw dough is also quite nice, but if you eat too much of that you have less biscuits).
150g unsalted butter diced at room temperature
75g icing sugarm sifted
25g cornflour
120g self raising flour
30g cocoa powder
Filling
30g unsalted butter slightly softened
30g icing sugar plus extra for dusting
2 tsp cocoa powder
1. Preheat oven to 190C or Gas mark 5 and arrange about 12 paper cases in a bun tin.
2.Cream together butter and sugar until light, cramy and fluffy.
3. Sift and add the cornflour, flour and cocoa and combine. This should form a soft squidgy dough.
4. Divide dough ito roughly 30g pieces and roll into balls (about the size of a walnut). Press a shallow dip in the top of each one, then transfer to the paper cases, gently pressing them down into the paper cases.
5. Bake for 15-20 minutes, then remove from oven and leave to cool.
6. For the filling, cream the butter icing sugar and cocoa in a small bowl until pale and fluffy. Fill each shallow hole with about half a teaspoon of the filling or use a piping bag.
7. Dust with icing sugar and set aside for about an hour to set. At this point you could now take out the paper cases.
Notes:
1. Im afraid I dont know where this recipe came from, it is another of my neighbours and so im always happy when she drops off a little tub of these.
2. I did make the ones in the picture and forgot to dust with icing sugar, oops!
