Steps

1

Mix the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg yolks and mix more.
2

Sift the "A" ingredients into the bowl and gently fold.
3

The dough is ready when it comes together and there is no visible flour.
4

Shape the dough into a long stick and wrap it with plastic wrap. Rest in the refrigerator or freezer for one hour to chill well.
5

I made round cookies this time, but you can make square shaped cookies or use any cookie cutter you like by rolling out the rested dough.
6

Cut the cookies into 5 mm slices and bake in an oven preheated to 170°C for 12 minutes. Cool when done.
7

Warm the "B" ingredients to melt the chocolate. Mix and make ganache. (I used a microwave.) Cool slightly.
8

Fill the cookies with the ganache. The ganache needs to cool down a bit to gain thickness, otherwise it will be hard to fill the cookies.
9

Finished. I recommend you rest the cookies in the refrigerator until the ganache settles.
10

The flavor will be fit for adults if you add liquor into the ganache.
