Hojicha Brownie Cookies
These Hojicha Brownie Cookies are the classic brownie cookies with an Asian twist! Bake up a batch of these cookies for an irresistibly soft and chewy cookie with a perfectly crisp crackled outer shell.
Servings: cookies
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup (85 gr) white chocolate, chopped
- 1/4 cup (55 gr) unsalted butter
- 1 egg
- 1/3 cup (65 gr) castor sugar
- 1/3 cup (65 gr) brown sugar
- 1/2 cup (65 gr) all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 tbsp hojicha powder
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/8 tsp salt
- Sesame seeds, for topping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F/180°C and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- Microwave the chocolate and butter until fully melted. If you don't have a microwave, melt them in a heatproof bowl that rests easily in your saucepan without touching the surface of the simmering water (bain-marie). Let the mixture cool slightly before using.
- In a large bowl, add egg, castor sugar, and brown sugar. Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, whip the mixture for 5-6 minutes on high speed until thick and glossy.
- Pour the melted chocolate and butter into the egg mixture. Beat until well combined using the mixer.
- Sift in flour, hojicha powder, baking powder, and salt. Use a spatula to mix everything until well incorporated.
- Transfer the batter into a piping bag. Pipe the cookies onto the prepared baking sheets. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top, if desired.
- Bake for 10-11 minutes until the edges are slightly brown.
- Cool the cookies on the pan for 10-15 minutes to set. Then, transfer them to the cooling rack to cool completely.
Notes
Don't cut back the mixing time of egg and sugar. The sugar will dissolve during the beating, creating a certain viscosity to the dough. If you don't mix them properly, the batter will be too thin to pipe.
