Chocolate Coin Cookies

My son Roy enlisted in the IDF and is currently in combat basic training.

1 egg
250 grams flour (2 cups minus 3 Tbsp)

40 white chocolate baking coins

Preparation:

1.  Take the butter out of the fridge around 15 minutes before you start making the cookies.

2. Use the mixer’s paddle attachment to cream together the butter, sugar, and instant pudding powder for around two minutes until light and fluffy.

3. Add the baking soda and cornstarch and beat for a few more seconds, then add the cocoa powder and flour and mix until you get a crumbly consistency, then add the egg and keep beating until you get a brown dough.

5. Preheat an oven to 180°C. Form balls weighing 12-14 grams each and arrange them on a parchment paper-lined baking tray with enough space in between for them to flatten while baking. Bake in batches of 10 cookies. Bake each batch for 7 minutes and

The cookies are beautiful, and I especially like the contrast between the white chocolate coins and the brown chocolate cookie.
I’m not picky, though, milk or dark chocolate would work really well, too.
