Fursecuri cu ciocolata neagra si alba
A trecut si Craciunul lui 2015 si cu el s-au dus si fursecurile pregatite cu aceasta ocazie. Insa am pentru voi astazi o reteta a unor fursecuri pe care le-am pregatit cu ocazia evenimentului caritabil de la Simbio – un eveniment care a adunat o mana de bloggeri culinari inimosi care au gatit pentru a ajuta asociatia Ajungem Mari. S-au adunat peste 3000 lei pe parcursul a catorva ore, motiv pentru care as vrea sa multumesc atat celorlalti blogger prezenti – Kiss the Cook, Diva in Bucatarie si Andie.ro – dar si celor care ati fost prezenti si ati cumparat de la noi fursecuri, batoane granola, dulceata de portocale, rilettes, cupcakes, turta dulce, caramele si o multime de alte bunatati. You rock!
Cat despre fursecuri, reteta e pur ciocolatoasa, cu multa cacao in compozitia aluatului si ciocolata alba drept umplutura. La decor m-am jucat putin cu bombonele de ciocolata si putina pudra de ceai verde, dar e doar o chestie de gust personal.

ENGLISH
Day three of Christmas and we finished our cookie stash already! How it happened I don’t know! I’m not going to bake anything these days though. Instead, I decided to go through the older recipes I had and these chocolate thumbprint cookies really stood out! The dough recipe is pretty basic, inspired from a recipe by Pierre Herme and it’s one of the recipes that I make pretty often because it bakes into a melt-in-your-mouth cookie that is at the same time crunchy, but silky, buttery and delicious. The filling is pure white chocolate with a few coffee chocolate candies on top, decorated with a dusting of matcha powder for a color contrast.
It’s a recipe I believe it deserves a spot on the blog, moreover since it was one of the products I presented myself with at a charity fair a few weeks back. It was so much fun! Just a bunch of food bloggers cooking for a great cause – helping kids in orphanages have access to education. And we manage to raise quite a lot of money which is great! Apart from these cookies, I also brought a chocolate bacon cake to the party and a gingerbread house, plus these vegan muffins. I would do it again without thinking twice, it was an experience I learnt a lot from, but most of all one that brought so much rewards back!
{Chocolate Thumbprint Cookies} – Fursecuri cu ciocolata
Ingrediente
- 140 g butter (softened)
- 70 g powdered sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 250 g all-purpose flour
- 30 g cocoa powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 100 g white chocolate (melted)
Instructiuni
- Preheat the oven to 170C and line two baking sheets with baking paper.
- Mix the butter and sugar in a bowl until light and creamy.
- Add the egg and vanilla and mix well then stir in the flour, cocoa powder, salt and baking powder.
- Mix until a dough forms. Shape the dough into a disc and wrap it in plastic wrap.
- Refrigerate for 30 minutes then take small pieces of dough and shape them into balls.
- Place the dough on the prepared pans and make a small indentation into each ball using your fingertip. The idea is to fill these indentations with chocolate later on.

- Allow to cool in the pan then fill each cookie with melted white chocolate.
- Decorate with chocolate shavings and matcha powder or as desired.
I would love some of these cookies, Oana! As its January I am trying cut down on sweet things, but there is temptation everywhere, especially here! x
