Coffee Cocoa Cookie Dough

Ingredients: Coffee Cocoa Cookie Dough

Preparation: Coffee Cocoa Cookie Dough

  1. Cream the butter, brown sugar, sucrose, salt, and 25% of the all-purpose flour together in the mixer.
  2. NOTE: We use this small quantity of flour at the very beginning to allow for a better emulsion.
  3. In a small bowl, mix the eggs with the vanilla.
  4. In another bowl, mix the coffee and oil.
  5. Combine the remaining dry ingredients, except for the chocolates.
  6. Once the butter mixture is well-combined, alternate adding the dry ingredients and the wet ingredients, mixing well after each addition.
  7. Chop the Zephyr™ and Tanzanie couvertures and add them to the dough. Mix well.
  8. Using a scale, portion 150 g (5.3 oz) balls, place them on a metal tray lined with a silicone mat and cover with plastic film.
  9. Reserve in the refrigerator for about 12 hours.
  10. Once you're ready to bake the cookies, make the pecan chocolate crust: Mix some chopped pecans with chopped
  11. Cacao Barry® Tanzanie Chocolate (#2), and Maldon salt flakes (#2).
  12. Place 4, 12 cm (4.7”) greased metal rings on a metal tray lined with a silicone mat. Place one cookie inside each metal ring and press to flatten.
  13. Press the cookies into the prepared crust and place back in the greased rings, crust side up.
  14. Bake at 160°C (320°F) for about 15 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches a minimum of 93°C (199°F) and a maximum of 95°C (203°F).
  15. Let the cookies cool in the molds for a few minutes before unmolding them. Run a small paring knife around the rim and remove the ring.
  16. Let the cookies cool completely at room temperature until needed.

Yuzu Marshmallows

Ingredients: Yuzu Marshmallows

  • 126 g
    gelatin mass 200 Bloom
  • 100 g
    dextrose
  • 85 g
    yuzu puree
  • 70 g
    glucose syrup
  • 188 g
    sucrose
  • 2 g
    citric acid powder
  • Q.S.
    Yuzu essence

Preparation: Yuzu Marshmallows

  1. In a saucepan, cook the yuzu puree, glucose syrup, and sucrose on high heat until the mixture reaches 110°C (230°F).
  2. Place the gelatin mass and dextrose in the bowl of the tabletop mixer.
  3. Pour the hot syrup on the gelatin and dextrose in the mixer bowl. Whip on medium-high speed to combine. Then add the citric acid and yuzu essence and continue whipping to the desired consistency. The marshmallow will be quite aerated, but pourable. It will set up as it cools.
  4. Pour the marshmallow into a piping bag and pipe it on top of the cookie, filling it to the top of the acetate strip. Tap the tray to remove air bubbles and level the marshmallow layer.
  5. Allow the marshmallow to set overnight at 16°C to 18°C (61°F to 64°F).
