Hanukkah Gelt Cookies Recipe 445

Steps:

• Brush a 24-cup mini muffin pan or two 12-cup mini muffin tins (preferably nonstick) with oil.
• Put the chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between each, until completely melted and smooth, about 90 seconds.
• Divide the melted chocolate evenly among the cups of the prepared muffin tin, about 1 3/4 teaspoons per muffin cup. (You can also use a pastry bag for this part.) Tap the muffin tin against the counter to remove any air bubbles and even out the chocolate.
• Top with gold sprinkles and refrigerate until set, about 1 hour. Use an offset spatula to remove the chocolate from the tin.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Line cookie sheet with cooking parchment paper or silicone baking mat. Cut dough evenly into 16 slices; place slices 2 inches apart on cookie sheet. Flatten each slice until it measures about 2 inches in diameter. Sprinkle slices with sanding sugar; place 1 piece of gelt on center of each slice.
• Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until edges are light golden brown (gelt may be slightly melted but should hold its shape). Cool 5 to 10 minutes; remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks.
