🍪🥥 Romany Creams 🥥🍪
A delightful South African treat, these creamy chocolate-filled biscuits are coated in desiccated coconut, making them a perfect indulgence for any occasion.
Ingredients:
• 500g butter (room temperature)
• 1 cup caster sugar
• 1/4 cup icing sugar
• 1/4 cup oil
• 1 egg
• 1 tbsp vanilla essence
• 4 cups cake flour
• 1 tsp baking powder
• 125g cocoa powder
• 2 cups medium desiccated coconut
• 450g plain chocolate (melted)
Directions:
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Make the Dough: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the room temperature butter, caster sugar, and icing sugar until light and fluffy. Add the oil, egg, and vanilla essence, mixing until well combined.
Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, sift together the cake flour, baking powder, and cocoa powder. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until a smooth dough forms.
Shape the Biscuits: Take small portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheets, leaving space between each ball. Flatten each ball slightly with a fork or your hand.
Bake the Biscuits: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are firm. Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Prepare the Filling: Once the biscuits are cool, spread a generous amount of melted plain chocolate on the flat side of one biscuit, then sandwich it with another biscuit. Repeat this process until all biscuits are filled.
Coat with Coconut: Roll the filled biscuits in the desiccated coconut until fully coated. Allow the chocolate to set before serving.
Serve and Enjoy: These Romany Creams are perfect for sharing with friends and family. Enjoy the rich chocolate flavor and delightful coconut texture!
