Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 180°C. Line 2 baking trays with baking paper. Beat butter and vanilla essence together with an electric mixer until creamy. Add icing sugar and continue to beat until pale and well combined. Add flour and cocoa and mix to combine.

2. Roll 2 teaspoons of dough into balls and place on prepared trays. Press centre of each ball with ball of thumb to make indentation. Bake for 12 minutes, until set.

3. Meanwhile prepare Mocha Filling. Melt chocolate and butter in a small heavy-based saucepan on low, stirring constantly. Stir in icing sugar, vanilla and enough coffee to make a smooth filling. While cookies are still warm, spoon filling into centres. Cool completely on wire racks.

Hot Tips

Pickling

Pickling is a common preservation technique. Start by gently boiling a brine of water, vinegar and salt. Pour this into a sterilised jar with preferred vegetables, such as cucumbers. For an extra kick, add garlic, horseradish and whole dill stems. Seal the jar and leave for several weeks to ferment.
