White Choco Oat Lace Cookies

I've been craving oat cookies (havreflarn) for a while now and even though TY keeps begging me to bake cinnamon buns for him, I ignored that one more time and went ahead and made some easy quick cookies instead ><.

Oat cookies dipped in silky white chocolate with a hint of green tea... 😋 Yup. Sounded like a good idea to me so here they are!

These cookies are quick and very easy to make (about 20 min) but because of the added chocolate I spent way more time on them. I would say about one hour (at least for amateurs like me! XD)?

It is the tempering of the chocolate that takes time.

However, the chocolate is optional because this cookie is awesome anyway! 😎

I n g r e d i e n t s (ca 20 cookies)

Oven: 175°C* (hot air oven) or 200°C* (normal)

(175°C=347°F; 200°C=392°F)

Cookie dough

70 grams butter

1 tbs light syrup (I used something similar to corn syrup - 올리고당)

1 dl oats

1 dl all-purpose flour

1 dl brown sugar

1/4 tsp baking powder

pinch of Salt

pinch of vanilla sugar (or powder)

Chocolate topping

100 grams white chocolate

1 tsp nokcha/matcha/green tea-powder

cooking thermometer

D i r e c t i o n s

Cookies

1. Put oven on 175°C.

2. Melt butter in a pot. When all melted, put the rest of the ingredients in and mix well.

3. On a baking paper covered oven tray, put small globs of the batter. The size about 1 tbs each. Be sure to have enough space in between the cookies (5-10cm)because they will melt down and spread out!

4. Put tray in the oven for about 5 min until the cookies are golden. Be careful not to burn them!

5. Let them rest for a few minutes. While they're still soft bend and roll them up.

Chocolate

1. Chop the chocolate and split into two piles of same size.

2. Water bath. Bring some water to a boil in a pot and put a deep medium sized bowl into the pot.

3. Add half of the chocolate and stir it. Be careful to not get any water into the bowl!

Use a cooking thermometer to keep track of the chocolate's rising temperature. White chocolate should first hit 45°C.

Then add the rest of the chocolate and stir it while it cools down. Now the chocolate must cool down to 25-29°C and then get heated again up to 29°C. (This is for white chocolate only. Milk chocolate and dark chocolate needs other temperatures when tempered).

(I failed the tempering this time ㅠㅠ - it's very difficult ><)

4. Mix the green tea powder with half of the chocolate and dip one end of the cookies. I did this because I wanted half of the cookies with pure white chocolate and half with green tea flavor... Then maybe toss some sprinkles on and ta-dah! It's done!... Just let them sit and cool down a bit first until the chocolate hardens.
