Ravioli Cookies (with Oreo/Cream cheese filling)
Cookies:
1 cup shortening
1 1/3 cup white granulated sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
-Combine the flour, salt and baking powder in a bowl and set aside.
Place the 1 cup shortening in a large bowl and add the white granulated sugar. Cream the two together until light and fluffy. Blend in the vanilla and the eggs.
Add in the dry ingredients and stir until combined.
Roll out portions of dough between sheets of waxed or parchment paper to 1/8" thickness.
**NOTE** if you find the dough too soft and sticky to work with, chill it for about 30 minutes.
I you don't want to use the same method I used in the video, do the following.
Cut out circles in the rolled out dough using a cookie cutter. Place a small portion (1-2 tsp) of the cream cheese mixture in the center.
Flatten filling slightly. Place a second round circle of cut out dough over the top and press edges together with a fork to seal.
Re-roll scraps and continue until all used up.
Place cookies on a greased cookie sheet or one covered with silicone mat or parchment paper. Leave about 1.5 inches between cookies.
Bake at 350F for about 15-20 minutes until edges are light brown.
Allow to cool on cookie sheet for 10 minutes and then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
Drizzle melted chocolate over cooled cookies.
Store in a covered container at room temperature or in the refrigerator (depending on how long you plan on keeping them).
Filling:
12 Oreo cookies
1 package (8oz) of cream cheese softened (at room temperature)
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/2 tsp coconut extract (or use vanilla or almond extract if you prefer)
- crush the oreo cookies into fine crumbs an combine them with the powdered sugar and extract until smooth.
Drizzle:
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 tsp vegetable shortening
-Melt chocolate chips and shortening together in double boiler or microwave and place in a ziplock bag with a small hole cut in the corner.
