Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.75 cup Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Light brown sugar
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Light corn syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.25 cup Heavy cream
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium-sized saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, stir in the light brown sugar, granulated sugar, and light corn syrup until smooth and well combined.
Remove the saucepan from heat and mix in the vanilla extract, flour, and salt. Stir until the batter forms a smooth consistency.
Using a small spoon, drop teaspoon-sized dollops of batter onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 3 inches apart as they will spread significantly while baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cookies are golden brown and spread out into thin lace patterns. Keep an eye on them as they can quickly go from done to overbaked.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to cool completely on the sheets. Once solid, gently peel them off the parchment paper.
To make the chocolate filling, heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan or in the microwave until just simmering. Pour the hot cream over the semi-sweet chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl. Let it sit for 2-3 minutes, then stir until smooth and glossy.
Pair the lace cookies into matching sizes. Spread a thin layer of the chocolate ganache onto the bottom side of one cookie and sandwich it with the bottom side of a second cookie. Repeat with remaining pairs.
Allow the ganache to set for about 20-30 minutes at room temperature before serving. Store the sandwich cookies in an airtight container to maintain their crispness.
