- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Prolon Longevity Almond and Cocoa Spread
- Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)
Instructions:
Preheat & Prepare: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Prepare Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
Cream Butter and Sugars: In another bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Add Wet Ingredients: Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined and forming a dough. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
Form Cookie Dough Balls: Once chilled, take tablespoons of dough and roll them into balls. Flatten each ball in your palm and place a small teaspoon of Prolon Longevity Almond and Cocoa Spread in the center.
Seal and Shape: Fold the edges of the dough around the spread, sealing it completely, and reshape the dough into a ball.
Bake: Place the stuffed cookie dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are slightly golden.
Cool and Dust (Optional): Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Dust with powdered sugar if desired for a festive touch.
