Ingredients

• 170 grams unsalted butter
• 150 grams granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 250 grams all-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 100 grams dark chocolate

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large bowl, cream together the unsalted butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

Add the vanilla extract and mix until well incorporated.

Step 4

Sift in the all-purpose flour and salt. Mix until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix.

Step 5

Melt the dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water or in the microwave (in 20-second intervals, stirring each time). Allow the chocolate to cool slightly but remain pourable.

Step 6

Flatten the dough on a lightly floured surface into a rough rectangle, about 1 cm thick.

Step 7

Pour the cooled melted chocolate over the surface of the dough in a thin, even layer. Spread it gently with a spatula if needed.

Step 8

Roll the dough tightly into a log, starting from one of the long edges. Wrap the log in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or until firm.

Step 9

Once chilled, slice the log into 0.5 cm thick rounds and place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving a little space between each cookie.

Step 10

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers are still soft.

Step 11

Remove the Chocolate Ripples from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 12

Serve with a warm beverage or store in an airtight container for up to a week.
