Ingredients:

• 170 grams of butter, room temperature
• 160 grams of light muscovado sugar
• 40 grams of granulated sugar
• Vanilla extract
• 2 egg yolks
• 40 grams of cocoa powder
• A pinch of salt
• 5 grams of baking powder
• 190 grams of all-purpose flour

Instructions:

1. Start by beating together the room temperature butter with both types of sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
2. Add the egg yolks to the mixture, continuing to mix for another 2 minutes.
3. Gradually add the cocoa powder, salt and baking powder to the creamy mixture.
4. Finish by gently incorporating the flour until just combined.
5. Shape the dough into balls, create a small indentation in each, and refrigerate for about 1 hour to firm up; this prevents the cookies from spreading too much during baking.
6. Bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees Celsius (356 degrees Fahrenheit) for 7 minutes. Next, use a glass to gently press around the cookies, creating a defined edge, and a teaspoon to deepen the indentations for the filling.
7. Prepare the filling by pouring hot cream over 200 grams of chocolate, stir until smooth.
8. Fill the cookies with ganache and let them cool completely before serving.
