Instructions
Step 1
Start by melting the dark chocolate and butter together. You can use a water bath for this, or simply melt them in the microwave.
Make sure to stir frequently until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, crack the egg and add the sugar. Using a whisk or an electric mixer, whip them together until the mixture turns white and fluffy. This should take about 8 minutes.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, combine the flour with the baking powder. Slowly fold this dry mixture into the whipped egg mixture.
Once incorporated, gently add the melted chocolate mixture and mix until everything is well combined.
Step 4
Transfer your cookie batter into a piping bag for easy handling.
Pipe the batter onto a baking sheet in staggered rows, making sure to form a total of 20 cookie shapes on the sheet.
Step 5
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Bake the cookies for approximately 7-8 minutes.
Look out for the top of the cookies to start cracking, which indicates they are ready.
Step 6
Once the cookies are baked, let them cool completely on a wire rack.
Take the dulce de leche and spread it generously over half of the cookies, then sprinkle a little salt on top.
Finally, press another cookie on top to make a delicious sanduich.
Servings
For a fun twist, pair these cookies with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an indulgent dessert that screams celebration! Whether it's a birthday bash or a cozy movie night, these sandwiches elevate any occasion. Don’t forget to keep a few hidden away for your late-night cravings! 🍦🤫
Equipment
A piping bag allows for precise control when shaping your cookies. If you don’t have one, a zip-lock bag with the corner snipped off works just as well!



Use a sturdy, non-stick baking sheet to prevent your cookies from sticking. Remember to line it with parchment paper for the best results!



Having multiple bowls will help keep your ingredients organized. Make sure they are large enough to prevent spills during mixing.
This is essential for melting your chocolate without burning it. If you're using a microwave, do so in short bursts, stirring in between.
Variations
For a **gluten-free** option, simply substitute regular flour with almond flour or a gluten-free blend. This minor adjustment keeps the cookies moist and delicious while accommodating dietary restrictions. 🌾❌
If you're looking for a **vegan** treat, swap the egg with a chia seed egg (1 tbsp of chia seeds mixed with 2.5 tbsp of water, let it sit until gel-like). Use vegan chocolate and plant-based butter for a scrumptious result that everyone can enjoy! 🌱✨
