Chocolate Teeny Teddies

  • Author: The road to loving my Thermo Mixer
  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 270 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 80g butter, cubed
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 100g sugar
  • 40g honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
  • 170g plain flour
  • 65g self raising flour
  • 1/2 teaspooon bi carb soda

Instructions

  1. Place butter, sugar, honey and vanilla into bowl.
  2. Melt at 100 degrees, speed 2 for 5 minutes.
  3. Don’t have a Thermo Mixer? Melt in a saucepan over a medium heat on the stove.
  4. Add remaining ingredients.
  5. Mix on speed 3 for 45 seconds or until well combined.
  6. Don’t have a Thermo Mixer? Take saucepan off the heat. Add remaining ingredients and mix with a wooden spoon until combined.
  7. This will be a sticky, wet dough. It firms upon cooling however.
  8. Remove dough from bowl or saucepan and place onto a silicone mat in a rectangle shape to cool slightly, approximately 5 minutes. Be careful as this will be hot. Do not put it in the fridge or leave it too long as it will be harder to work with.
  9. Preheat oven to 180 degrees. Line two large baking trays with baking paper.
  10. Once dough is slightly cooled and easy to work with, roll out into a thin rectangle about 2mm in thickness. When I roll, I lift and flip it over a few times whilst rolling to ensure its an even roll. Work gently and slowly when lifting and flipping.
  11. If your dough is sticky allow it to cool a little longer. You want a dough that is able to be lifted from the surface it is being rolled on.
  12. Using a small teddy cutter cut shapes from the dough. You may choose to cut and then place the teddy on the tray or you may chose to cut them all at once then peel away from the mat and put on the tray. You can see both options in the blog photo.
  13. Cut as many from the first batch us possible. As the dough cools it is harder to roll. Warm for 15-30 seconds in the microwave if it dries or cool too much.
  14. These will only need to bake for 5-8 minutes or so. Watch them very carefully. You want them slightly browned and a crunch to them. Do not overcook though. Burnt chocolate is not tasty. Every oven varies so watch them closely.
  15. Store in a airtight glass jar for up to two weeks.
