Difficulty: Easy
Kosher Category: Pareve, Kosher for Passover
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Yield: About 25 cookies

For the Cookies:

  • 200 g dark chocolate

  • 3 tablespoons oil

  • 1/4 cup sugar

  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 2 eggs

  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

  • 1/4 cup potato starch

For the Topping:

  • Chocolate spread

  • A pinch of coarse salt

Instructions:

In a large bowl, melt the chocolate together with the oil.

Add the remaining ingredients in order, mix well, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Preheat the oven to 170°C (340°F).

Using a spoon, drop rounds of the dough onto a parchment-lined baking tray, leaving space between each.

Bake for 8–10 minutes, until the cookies release from the paper. Be careful not to overbake.

Once the cookies have slightly cooled, press a small indentation into the center of each. Spoon a little chocolate spread into the center and sprinkle with a bit of coarse salt for balance.

Store in an airtight container for up to a week at room temperature. Freezes well.
