These thin chocolate cakes with ganache frosting dipped in grated coconut make the perfect nest for two or three miniature chocolate eggs. Source: Martha Stewart Living, April 1999. Makes 2 dozen.
Ingredients:
– 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
– 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
– 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for rolling out dough
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 cup Dutch-process cocoa powder, sifted
– 6 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
– 1 cup heavy cream
– 1 teaspoon instant espresso powder
– Gel-paste food coloring
– 2 cups sweetened shredded coconut
– 6 candy-coated chocolate eggs
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine butter and sugar.
2. In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, and cocoa powder. Add flour mixture to butter mixture; mix on low speed until a stiff dough forms, about 2 minutes. Transfer dough to a piece of plastic wrap, seal tightly, and chill until firm, about 30 minutes.
3. Place chocolate, heavy cream, and espresso powder in a medium heatproof bowl. Place bowl over a pan of gently simmering water, stirring occasionally, until chocolate has melted. Remove bowl from heat and set chocolate ganache aside to cool, stirring occasionally.
4. On a lightly floured surface, roll out chilled dough to 1/4-inch thickness. Using a 2 1/4-inch round cookie cutter, cut out 24 cookies; place them on prepared baking sheets. Chill cookies until firm, about 20 minutes.
5. Bake cookies until set, about 14 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
6. For colored coconut, combine a few drops of food coloring with 3 tablespoons of water in a medium bowl. Stir in coconut; mix until evenly colored. Spread on an ungreased baking sheet; bake until dry, about 12 minutes, being careful not to brown. Let coconut cool; transfer to a small bowl.
