Chocolate-Drizzled Coffee Shortbread
Chocolate-Drizzled Coffee Shortbread
Makes about 36 cookies
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- ⅓ cup confectioners’ sugar
- 1⁄4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons French Market Creole Blend Ground Coffee
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄2 teaspoon orange zest
- 1 large egg yolk, room temperature
- 1⁄2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups sifted Swans Down® Cake Flour
- 6 ounces semisweet chocolate baking bars, chopped
- 1 teaspoon all-vegetable shortening
Instructions
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter at medium speed until smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. Add sugars, ground co ee, salt, and orange zest; beat at medium-low speed until smooth, about 1 minute. Add egg yolk and vanilla. Beat until combined, about 1 minute. With mixer on low speed, add our to butter mixture in two additions, beating until combined. Shape dough into a 12-inch log; wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate until firm, at least 2 hours.
- Preheat oven to 325°. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Using a serrated knife, cut dough crosswise into ¼-inch-thick rounds. Place at least 1 inch apart on prepared pans.
- Bake until tops are set and bottoms are lightly golden, 15 to 18 minutes. Let cool on pans for 1 minute. Remove from pans, and let cool completely on a wire rack.
- In a small microwave-safe bowl, heat chocolate on high in 10-second intervals, stirring between each, until melted and smooth (1 to 11/2 minutes total). Stir in shortening until smooth and well combined. Spoon chocolate mixture into a small pastry bag or resealable plastic bag; cut a 1⁄4-inch opening in tip or corner. Drizzle chocolate mixture over shortbread as desired. Let stand until set before serving, 15 to 20 minutes.
Promo said download recipe book with 15 recipes. There are only 4 pages and 3 recipes. I think the link to the e-book is incorrect.
I thought the same thing. Open the file and reduce zoom to 50% – you can’t read the recipes but you can scroll through all the pages and enlarge the ones you are interested in.
Hi, Cherry. The e-book is linked to the text “15 Recipes for Everyday Baking” in the first page of this post. The direct download link is http://teatimemagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/swans-down-recipe-booklet.pdf. This web post only includes three sample recipes from the downloadable book. You’ll have to click the direct e-book link to get all 15 recipes. Take care and let us know if you need anything else.
Check the first slide. In the sixth line down, it starts with “copy of….” That is followed by a link to the downloadable recipe booklet. I just did and the cakes look amazing!
There is a link on the first page of this article that takes you to the download. It has 15 recipes. Several cakes and cookies including the 3 that are in the article.
So, where is the link to download the e-book?
Agree with Cherry’s comment. Also, it was just recipes. There wasn’t an E Book format.
Please fix and resend . Also, your emails contain more interfering ads than almost any other. It’s too hard to read articles with ads popping up all around. I’m ready to give up
