Ingredients
 
 

Cookie Dough
  • 3/4 cup butter
  • 1/3 cup white sugar
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tbsp molasses optional
  • 1 tbsp corn syrup optional
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tsp espresso powder optional
  • 2 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tbsp corn starch optional
Whipped Cream
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
Ganache
  • 1/3 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup white chocolate

Method
 

Step 1: Prep the Oven & Butter
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F convection. Beat the butter until it turns an off-white color, about 2–3 minutes.
Step 2: Add the Sugars
  1. Add the white sugar and brown sugar. Beat with the butter until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
Step 3: Add the Wet Ingredients
  1. Mix in the egg, followed by the vanilla, molasses, and corn syrup, until fully combined.
Step 4: Make the Dough
  1. Add the flour, espresso powder, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and cornstarch, mixing until a dough forms.
Step 5: Shape the Cookie Pies
  1. Butter mini pie pans or 4-inch cake pans. Scoop ½ cup of cookie dough into each pan.
  2. Smoosh the dough down and push it slightly up the sides (about ½ inch) to create a pie shape.
Step 6: Bake
  1. Bake cookies for 13–15 minutes at 350°F.
Step 7: Cool & Release
  1. Let cookies cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer them to the fridge or freezer for 5 minutes to make removal easier.
Step 8: Repeat
  1. Remove cookies from pans and repeat the process until all cookies are baked.
Step 9: Make the White Chocolate Ganache
  1. In a microwave-safe bowl, heat ⅓ cup heavy cream with ½ cup (45 g) white chocolate in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth.
  2. Let ganache cool for 20 minutes (or 10 minutes in the fridge/freezer).
Step 10: Make the Whipped Cream
  1. In a bowl (or stand mixer with whisk attachment), add 2 cups heavy cream and 2 tablespoons sugar. Beat on high until whipped.
  2. Gently fold the cooled ganache into the whipped cream, being careful not to deflate it.
  3. (You can substitute 4 cups of pre-whipped cream if preferred.)
Step 11: Chill & Assemble
  1. Chill the whipped cream mixture for 10 minutes. Spoon two ¼-cup scoops onto each cookie.
Step 12: Finish & Store
  1. Add sprinkles and chocolate syrup if desired. Enjoy immediately or store cookies in the fridge for up to 12 days.
