Salted Dark Chocolate-covered Wafers
Makes six dozen cookies
For wafers
1 ½ cup butter
2 cups sugar
4 eggs
2 tspn vanilla
5 cups all purpose flour
OR 5 cups brown rice flour plus 1 ½ tbspn
xanthan gum
2 tspn baking powder
2 tspn salt
For
chocolate coating
8 oz unsweetened bakerユs chocolate
3 oz semi-sweet bakerユs chocolate
1 tblspn butter
1 tspn kosher salt
kosher salt for sprinkling
Bake the wafers.
Mix butter, sugar, eggs,
and vanilla. Blend in flour, baking powder, and salt. Add xanthan gum for the
gluten-free version. Cover and chill at least one hour. Overnight is best.
Heat oven to 400シ. Roll
dough paper-thin on parchment paper. Cut out desired shapes. It is easiest to
cut the cookies on the paper you will be baking them on. Bake for 6 minutes or
until they just start to brown.
Melt both types of
chocolate and butter together on a double boiler. If you donユt have a double
boiler, you can make an effective substitute using two differently sized
saucepots. Add the salt. Keeping the chocolate on low heat, CAREFULLY touch
about half of one side of a wafer in the chocolate. Or just dip it. Place the
now-chocolated wafer on either parchment paper or aluminum foil. Sprinkle the
salt over the chocolate while it is still soft. Cool wafers on their
post-dipping sheet.
Store in an airtight
container.
AND if you send me a
picture of your cookies, shipping on your next purchase will be refunded. Because
I donユt know how to make it so that only certain people get free shipping at
the time of the order.
Enjoy!
