Chocolate Strawberry Sandwich Cookies

Aren’t  these Chocolate Strawberry Sandwich cookies just so pretty? With a strawberry jam flavoured buttercream sandwiched between two melt in your mouth chocolate cookies, they taste just as good as they look.

Chocolate Strawberry Sandwich Cookies

I love how chocolate and strawberry go so well together, in taste and in the beautiful contrasting colours. Whenever I get a box of chocolates, I love picking out the strawberry filled chocolates first. They are so yum

Since a box of chocolates is not an option today, I am going with my other favorite, these amazing cookies. Prepared and baked in under 30 minutes, these are about to become your favorite too.

Chocolate Strawberry Sandwich Cookies

These cookies are really easy to make, with all the ingredients mixed in one bowl, rolled into balls and pressed lightly with a fork. They take between 8 to 10 minutes to bake, and then sandwiched with buttercream.

Just 2 tablespoons of strawberry jam is needed to flavour the buttercream, so you don’t need to have fresh strawberries for this recipe

A Few tips when making the Chocolate Strawberry Sandwich cookies

  • If you find that the dough is too soft to roll, then place in the fridge for a few minutes, this will help it firm up a bit, making it easier to roll
  • Try not to over bake these cookies, they should still be slightly soft when you remove it from the oven. It continues baking for a few more minutes on the hot pan after it has been removed from the oven.
  • Leave it on the pan and avoid moving it to a cooling rack. While these cookies are warm, they may break or crack when you pick them up.  Allow it to cool completely on the pan.
  • Fill the cookies with the buttercream only when it completely cooled.
