Oct 3rd 2012, 02:00

You've probably eaten a Milano cookie––it's a scrumptious cookie by Pepperidge Farm (USA) that has chocolate in the middle of two other cookies. If you're keen to make your own version, you'll be able to do so following this recipe. Not only do these ones taste great but they're also made from fresh ingredients, meaning that you know what's in them and how fresh they really are!

Edit Ingredients

  • 12 tbsp softened butter
  • 2 1/2 cups powdered sugar
  • 7/8 cup egg whites (about 6 eggs)
  • 2 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp lemon extract
  • 1 1/2 cup flour
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 8 ounces (226g) semisweet chocolate, chopped
  • 1 zested orange (optional)

Edit Steps

Cookie dough

  1. Preheat oven to 350ºF/180ºC.
  2. Cream and mix the butter and sugar.
  3. Add to the mix the egg whites, vanilla extract and lemon extract.
  4. Mix the flour into the mixture and stir with a paddle attachment.
  5. Pipe 1 inch (2.5cm) portions of batter onto a lined sheet pan, using 1/4 inch (6.35mm) plain-tipped piping bag.
  6. Bake these in preheated oven for 10 minutes or until golden brown.
  7. Let these cool on the pan.

Filling

  1. Pour a small amount of scalded heavy cream onto the chopped semi-sweet chocolate.
  2. Whisk the chocolate and cream mix until these two ingredients are melted together. Blend well.
  3. Let this mixture cool.
  4. Spread thin amounts of the mixture onto the flat sides of the cookies, while still warm, soft, and pliable.
  5. Press the flat side of a second cookie on top.

Edit Tips

  • This recipe makes about 3 dozen cookies.
  • There are some recipes that say to bake these cookies in a preheated oven to 325ºF instead of 350ºF. However, if the lower temperature is used, these cookies will need to be baked a while longer.
  • For broader taste, you may choose to refrigerate these cookies for several hours.
