Ingredients
  

  • 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour, 270 grams
  • 1 tsp. baking soda
  • ¼ tsp. salt
  • ¾ cup unsalted butter, room temp (170 grams)
  • ½ cup brown sugar, 100 grams
  • ½ cup granulated sugar, 100 grams
  • 2-3 tbsp. milk
  • 2 tsp. vanilla extract
  • cup melted chocolate

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350 F / 180 C and line your baking tray with parchment paper and keep aside.
  • In a medium bowl, sift the dry ingredients - flour, baking soda, and salt together, mix, and keep aside.
  • Add in the butter, and both sugar, and beat it at medium speed using an electric hand mixer, scraping down the sides for at least 2-3 min or until the mixture is lump free.
  • Add milk and vanilla extract to this mixture and mix well.
  • Now, add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and mix gently to combine.
  • Cover the mixture and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  • Once the dough has been chilled, remove it from the refrigerator and allow it to slightly soften at room temp. Take about 1 tbsp of dough and make a round ball using your palms, flatten it a bit, and place it on the prepared baking tray. Attach 2 small balls for the ears and one ball for the nose.
  • Refrigerate the shaped dough for 20-30 mins, this ensures that the cookies hold shape while baking (Do not skip this step).
  • Bake the cookies for 15-18 mins in the preheated oven until they turn a little golden.
  • Let the cookies cool for a few minutes in the baking tray before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Fill the melted chocolate in the piping bag and cut off the corner a little bit and decorate.
  • Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • The TEDDY BEAR COOKIES will stay fresh for 1-2 days at room temperature or for around a week in the refrigerator when stored properly in an air-tight container.
  • Keep a close eye on cookies while being baked as the baking time might vary depending on your oven. Bake the cookies just until they are lightly golden.
  • You can use chocolate chips or bars. To Melt the chocolate – Put the chips/bars in a large microwave-safe bowl along with about ½ tsp of oil (any oil) and heat it in the microwave at 20-second intervals; stirring properly after each interval and reheating as necessary.
