Gingerbread Chocolate Sandwiches
Gingerbread Chocolate Sandwiches are a delicious and indulgent treat that combines the warm, spicy flavors of gingerbread with rich, creamy chocolate. This recipe is perfect for anyone who loves the combination of sweet and spicy, and it's easy to make at home with just a few simple ingredients.
To make these Gingerbread Chocolate Sandwiches, you will need the following ingredients:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup molasses
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
To start, preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and salt.
In a separate large bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the molasses, egg, and vanilla extract, and beat until well combined. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are slightly soft. Allow the cookies to cool completely on the baking sheet.
While the cookies are cooling, make the chocolate filling. In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Remove from heat and add the chocolate chips, stirring until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
To assemble the sandwiches, spread a generous amount of the chocolate filling onto the bottom of one cookie, then top with another cookie. Repeat with the remaining cookies and filling.
These Gingerbread Chocolate Sandwiches are the perfect combination of sweet and spicy, with a rich, chocolatey filling that complements the warm, spicy flavors of the gingerbread cookies. They make a great holiday treat or anytime indulgence.
