Ingredients
115g Unsalted Butter (Cold, Cubed)
190g Brown Sugar
1 Tsp Vanilla Extract
1 Egg (Cold)
245g Plain Flour
1 Tbsp Corn Flour
1/2 Tsp Baking Soda
1/4 Tsp Salt
180g Milk Chocolate Chips
6 Tim Tam Biscuits (Cut in half to create squares)
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 160°C (fan). Line 2 baking trays with parchment paper. Set aside.
2. In a large mixing bowl, beat together the cold, cubed butter and brown sugar using a handheld beater until combined and creamy.
3. Add the vanilla extract and the cold egg, then beat again until fully combined and smooth.
4. Gently fold in the plain flour, corn flour, baking soda, and salt using a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
5. Fold in the milk chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
6. Evenly divide the cookie dough into 12 equal cookie balls. Flatten each ball slightly with your hands and place one half of a Tim Tam biscuit in the center. Carefully mould the cookie dough around the Tim Tam to completely seal it in, ensuring no biscuit is exposed.
7. Repeat this process with the remaining cookie dough and Tim Tam halves.
8. Place the prepared cookies evenly spaced on the lined baking trays, allowing room for spreading.
9. Bake for 13-15 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still slightly soft. Bake one tray at a time in the center of the oven for best results.
10. Allow the Tim Tam cookies to cool slightly on the baking tray before transferring them to a wire rack. Enjoy!
Notes
For the best results, ensure your butter and egg are cold as specified – this helps control spreading. Do not overmix the dough once flour is added, as this can lead to tough cookies. Baking one tray at a time in the center of the oven ensures even cooking. For an extra gooey center, serve warm!
