Description
Delightful cookies that combine the classic flavors of Boston cream pie into a fun, easy-to-eat form.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 package (3.4 oz) instant vanilla pudding mix
- 2 cups cold milk
- 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/3 cup heavy cream
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set it aside.
- In a separate bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Then, add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing well.
- Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
- Scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Flatten each ball slightly and create an indent in the center for the filling later.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden. Allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and cold milk until smooth and thickened. Place in the fridge for 5 minutes to set.
- Heat the heavy cream until it begins to simmer. Pour the hot cream over the semi-sweet chocolate chips and let it sit for 2 minutes. Stir until smooth.
- Spoon the chilled vanilla pudding into the center indent of each cooled cookie. Drizzle the chocolate ganache over the top of the pudding, then let the ganache set before serving.
