Baking Tips
Make sure the custard is thick enough before removing it from the heat, so it holds up when filling the cookies.
You can make the custard ahead of time and store it in the fridge until ready to fill the cookies.
For extra shine on the chocolate glaze, add a tiny bit of corn syrup when melting the chocolate.

Ingredients

Custard Cream
01
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
02
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
03
1/4 teaspoon salt
04
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
05
1/4 cup granulated sugar
06
1 large egg
07
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
08
1/2 cup heavy cream
09
1/4 cup milk
10
2 tablespoons cornstarch
11
1/4 cup granulated sugar (for custard)
12
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (for custard)
13
1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
14
2 tablespoons unsalted butter (for chocolate glaze)
15
1 tablespoon heavy cream (for chocolate glaze)

Instructions

01
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a mini muffin tin with paper liners or grease it lightly.
02
In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
03
In a large bowl, beat together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla extract, and beat until well combined.
04
Gradually mix in the dry ingredients until just combined, forming a soft dough.
05
Scoop about 1 tablespoon of dough into each muffin cup, pressing it down lightly. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Let the cookies cool completely.
06
For the custard filling: In a small saucepan, whisk together the heavy cream, milk, cornstarch, and sugar. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the mixture thickens and starts to bubble.
07
Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Let the custard cool slightly, then spoon about 1 teaspoon of custard into the center of each cooled cookie bite.
08
For the chocolate glaze: In a small saucepan, melt the chocolate chips, butter, and heavy cream over low heat, stirring until smooth.
09
Spoon a small amount of the chocolate glaze over each custard-filled cookie bite, letting it drizzle down the sides.
10
Allow the chocolate glaze to set before serving, about 10-15 minutes. Enjoy!
