With a simple recipe and readily available ingredients, you will make some easy-to-prepare cookies, ideal for a sweet snack alongside a cup of coffee or fragrant tea. Let's get started!
Ingredients for cookies:
- 4 eggs
- 250 g sugar
- 250 ml oil (preferably sunflower or canola oil)
- 450 g flour
- 1 vanilla essence
- Chocolate chips (optional, but recommended for extra flavor)
Ingredients for cream:
- 100 g butter (at room temperature)
- 75 g powdered sugar
- 1/2 packet of instant coffee
- 50 g walnuts (ground or finely chopped)
- 1 egg yolk
1. Start by preheating the oven to 180°C. This step is essential to ensure even baking of your cookies.
2. In a large bowl, beat the eggs with the sugar for about 3 minutes using an electric mixer. You will obtain a fluffy and light-colored mixture that will give the cookies a light texture.
3. Add the oil to the egg and sugar mixture. Continue mixing until well combined. The oil will make the cookies tender and moist.
4. Start incorporating the flour, sifting it gradually into the mixture. This step will prevent lumps from forming. Add the vanilla essence for a pleasant aroma.
5. If you wish, you can add chocolate chips at this point, gently mixing to distribute them evenly in the dough.
6. Using a spoon or a piping bag, form small mounds of dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving space between them to avoid sticking.
7. Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes. Be careful not to burn the bottoms, so check them after 10 minutes. When they turn golden around the edges, they are ready!
8. While the cookies are baking, you can prepare the cream. Beat the butter with the powdered sugar until it becomes a fluffy foam. Add the egg yolk, instant coffee, and ground walnuts. Mix well until you obtain a smooth cream.
9. Once the cookies have cooled, fill them with the delicious walnut and coffee cream. You can use a small spatula or a piping bag to do this.
10. For an elegant look, you can sprinkle a little powdered sugar on top of the filled cookies.
Serving suggestion: These tender cookies are perfect for serving at a gathering with friends, alongside a cup of coffee or tea. You can also experiment with other fillings, such as chocolate cream or fruit jam, to add a personalized touch.
Possible variations: You can replace the walnuts with almonds or pistachios for a different taste. Also, instead of instant coffee, you can use cocoa for a more intense chocolate flavor.
