Preparation: Bring the butter to room temperature. Sift the cake flour. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Finely chop the chocolate.

Put the unsalted butter in a bowl and mix until smooth. Add the sugar and mix until pale. Add the egg yolk and mix, then add the vanilla essence and mix again. Add the sifted cake flour and mix until no dry flour remains. Add the chocolate and mix again. Gather the dough into one mass.

Place the dough on plastic wrap, shape it into a log, wrap it, and chill in the freezer for at least 1 hour until firm.

Cut the dough into 7 mm slices and arrange them on the parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake in a preheated 340°F (170°C) oven for 12 to 15 minutes. Remove and let cool.

    Delicious every time! It was also tasty when made with chocolate chips, but the chunky crunch of the chocolate was great too! I made it with 100 g flour, 50 g sugar, 50 g butter, and 1 egg yolk, and it turned out crisp and delicious ❤️

    It’s so easy to make that I’ve made it many times. I really like the crisp texture. This time, I used chocolate chips instead of chopping up a chocolate bar.

    The chocolate and dough go together perfectly. Delicious! As a thank-you gift, I paired these with cookies made from pancake mix and topped with cashews. A fun gift 😀

    I tried making cookies for the first time, and I’m glad they turned out well 🌟 They were easier to make than I expected ♬

    This was my second time making it! Since it had a rich chocolate flavor, I used 40 g of sugar, and it was plenty sweet. This time I used 90 g of cake flour and 30 g of almond powder, and it turned out crisp and crumbly and delicious. I prefer a little more bite, so next time I think I’ll try using a bit less almond powder! 15 minutes at 340°F (170°C) was just right!

    So easy! The baking time may have ended up a little longer. Everyone loved them and said they were just like bakery cookies!

  • 🇯🇵 User from Japan

    The flavor balance was excellent, and these turned out to be the most delicious cookies I’ve ever made! The cookie dough part was crisp, and the chocolate chip parts had a nice crunchy bite, so they were really tasty. The method was simple too, which was a big help. Since you freeze the dough before slicing, it was easy to cut. The kids loved them as well. I’ll definitely make them again ^ ^

    I used chocolate chips instead of chocolate.

    I broke the chocolate into pieces rather roughly, so the sizes ended up uneven (^_^*). This time, I cut them into shapes, chilled them in the refrigerator for 30 minutes, and then baked them. They turned out nice and crispy, and were very delicious♪

    It turned out nice and crispy, and it was delicious! My family liked it too. Maybe the chocolate pieces were too big, because it crumbled a little when I took it out of the freezer and cut it. Next time, I’d like to try making it with cocoa powder.
