  • 250 g butter, room temperature
  • 1.75 cups sugar

Preparation:

  1. Pour dry yeast into warm or room temperature milk and let stand for 20 minutes.
  2. Preheat oven to 190°C.
  3. Beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy.

    Slowly add the yeast mixture and extracts and mix.

    In a separate bowl, whisk together both types of flour and salt. Gradually whisk into the previously prepared mixture. Caution: don't overmix, but make sure the mixture is smooth.

    Note *

    Low-gluten flour is used in baking and contains starch. Sift 1 cup of wheat flour, scoop out 2 tablespoons, and replace with 2 tablespoons of cornstarch.

    1 cup cake flour = 1 cup wheat flour + 2 tbsp cornstarch

  4. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick spray. Drop the batter into the pans with a spoon, spacing it 3-4 inches apart. Bake until the edges begin to brown, about 20-25 minutes.
  5. Cool cookies to room temperature before decorating.

    Ganache.

    Place the chocolate in two separate bowls: one for the dark chocolate and one for the white chocolate. Bring the cream to a simmer in two separate saucepans. Pour one saucepan of cream into the dark chocolate and the other into the white chocolate and let it melt. Whisk until smooth.

    Decoration: while the ganache is still slightly warm, you can use your imagination.
