Cookies, who doesn’t love them? Often it doesn’t stay with 1 we eat. Robèrt van Beckhoven shares a recipe for michelettes with us. These are cookies in the shape of a roll, with vanilla and chocolate flavor. Add to that a filling of chocolate and whipped cream and we can’t stay away from it…
Preparation time: 60 minutes
Quantity: 6 michelettes
Ingredients
Michelettes
- 170 grams of powdered sugar
- 150 grams of flour
- 4 egg whites
- 120 grams of butter
- 5 grams of cocoa powder
- A pinch of vanilla extract
Filling
- 150 grams of whipped cream
- 1 tablespoon of instant coffee
- 150 grams of dark chocolate
Supplies
- Pastry bag with nozzle 2
- Silicone baking mats
- Pencil
- White paper of 12 x 12
- Butterfly
- whisk
Method of preparation
Set the oven to 180 degrees. Start by making the filling. Put the whipped cream and instant coffee in a pan and put it on the fire. Meanwhile, finely chop the chocolate. When the whipped cream and instant coffee are boiling, remove the pan from the heat and add the chocolate. Mix it and put it cold.
Then make the oublie/michelette batter. Put the butter and icing sugar in a mixing bowl and mix with the machine. Slowly add the egg white. Sift the flour and also add.
Divide the batter in 2 and put in 2 separate bowls. It is about 260 grams per portion. Put a pinch of vanilla extract in one container and the cocoa powder in the other. Grab 2 piping bags. Fill one with the brown mixture, which contains cocoa. And the other piping bag with the white mixture, with the vanilla extract.
Take 1 of the 2 piping bags and make 12 thin strips on a baking mat of about 12 centimeters. The white paper is a tool for this. Leave a few millimeters of space between the strips. Take the other piping bag and spray it between the lanes that are already there. The white piece of paper serves as an aid to how big it should be. Repeat this 5 more times.
Bake them in the oven for about 8 minutes at 180 degrees. Then take it out of the oven and roll the batter around a pencil while it is still soft. Do this with all the cookies. Fill the michelettes with the whipped cream. Enjoy your meal!
