Another cookie recipe for chocolate lovers. I named them Sacher Christmas Trees because they are made of cocoa cookie dough and apricot jam, covered with chocolate. A perfect recipe for Sacher Cake fans!
Ingredients will be enough for 70 pieces. The preparation time is 4 hours.
Ingredients
Cookie dough
- 500 g baking flour
- 75 g raw cocoa powder
- 200 g powdered sugar
- 300 g butter
- 2 eggs
- 15 g baking powder
- Half a teaspoon of salt
150 g apricot jam
Chocolate cover
- 200 g baking chocolate/dark chocolate
- 150 g butter/margarine
Procedure
Knead the dough from all listed ingredients. Set in fridge for at least half an hour.
Roll the dough and cut christmas trees with a cookie model. Be careful you roll the dough very thinly so the finished cookie won’t be too thick.

Bake the cookies for 8-10 minutes on 180 degrees C.
When cold, stick two cookies together with apricot jam.
- Stick the cookies together with apricot jam.
For chocolate cover, melt baking chocolate together with butter. Sink each cookie in the mixture and set on a plate with enough distance. Let the chocolate dry.
