Milk Chocolate Florentine Cookies

Milk Chocolate Florentine Cookies recipe image
These Milk Chocolate Florentine Cookies offer a delightful contrast of textures and flavors that make them irresistible. The base is a crisp, buttery oat tuile made with quick oats, sugar, and corn syrup, baked until golden and lacy. Once cooled, half the cookies are dipped in smooth, melted milk chocolate and sandwiched together, creating a sturdy yet delicate bite. The combination of the crunchy, caramelized oat cookie and the creamy chocolate coating is perfect for holiday gift boxes, afternoon tea, or as a sweet ending to a dinner party. They are easier to make than they look and disappear quickly when served with friends and family.

Ingredients
  • 2/3 cup Butter or margarine
  • 2 cup Quick oats, uncooked
  • 1 cup Sugar
  • 2/3 cup All-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup Corn syrup
  • 1/4 cup Milk
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 package NESTLE Toll House milk
Directions
  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 375&# 194;°F (190ðC). Line two large baking sheets with aluminum foil.
  2. 2
    In a medium saucepan, melt butter over low heat.
  3. 3
    Remove saucepan from heat. Stir in oats, sugar, flour, corn syrup, milk, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined.
  4. 4
    Drop heaping teaspoonfuls of the oat mixture onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 3 inches apart.
  5. 5
    Gently spread each portion into a thin, round shape using the back of a spoon or a spatula.
  6. 6
    Bake for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
  7. 7
    Allow cookies to cool completely on the baking sheets. They will crisp up as they cool.
  8. 8
    Once cool, carefully peel the cookies off the foil.
  9. 9
    In a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water (do not let the bowl touch the water), melt the milk chocolate chips, stirring until smooth.
  10. 10
    Dip the flat side of half the cookies into the melted chocolate, covering the surface evenly.
  11. 11
    Place the chocolate-coated cookies flat-side down onto the remaining plain cookies to form sandwiches.
  12. 12
    Allow the chocolate to set completely before serving or storing.
