Ingredients
- 226 grams Unsalted butter, softened
- 150 grams Granulated sugar
- 2 Egg yolks
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 250 grams All-purpose flour
- 1.5 tablespoons Poppy seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 200 grams White chocolate, chopped
- 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3
Mix in the egg yolks and vanilla extract, blending until fully incorporated.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, poppy seeds, and salt.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter-sugar mixture, mixing until a soft dough forms.
Step 6
Use a small cookie scoop or your hands to form 1-inch balls of dough. Place them on the prepared baking sheets, spaced about 2 inches apart.
Step 7
Using your thumb or the back of a small spoon, make an indentation in the center of each cookie.
Step 8
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Remove them from the oven and allow them to cool completely on a wire rack.
Step 9
While the cookies are cooling, make the white chocolate filling by melting the chopped white chocolate and heavy cream together in a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water (double boiler method), stirring until smooth and glossy.
Step 10
Spoon or pipe the white chocolate filling into the indentations of the cooled cookies. Let the filling set at room temperature, or speed up the process by chilling the cookies in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes.
Step 11
Serve the cookies once the filling has set. Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
