Classic Swedish slice cookies baked as logs and cut while warm. Three variations: chocolate cookies with aquafaba, chocolate cookies with syrup, and toffee cookies.
Chocolate Slice Cookies (Chokladsnittar)
Variant 1 - With Aquafaba
- 200 g soft margarine
- 2.5 dl sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla sugar
- 4 tbsp cocoa powder
- 5.5 dl wheat flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 krm salt
- 3 tbsp aquafaba
Variant 2 - With Syrup (aquafaba-free)
- 200 g soft margarine
- 2.5 dl sugar
- 0.5 dl light syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla sugar
- 1 dl cocoa powder
- 5.5 dl wheat flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 krm salt
- cooking cream for brushing
- pearl sugar for topping
Instructions
Preheat oven to 200°C.
Beat margarine, sugar, syrup (if using), vanilla and cocoa together.
Add flour, baking powder, salt and aquafaba (if using). Knead into a smooth dough.
Divide into 3-4 parts. Roll into logs as long as your baking sheet. Place 2 logs per sheet.
Flatten the logs quite well. Brush generously with cooking cream and sprinkle with pearl sugar.
Bake at 200°C for 14-17 minutes.
Cut diagonally into 3-4 cm wide cookies while still warm.
Toffee Cookies (Kolakakor)
Ingredients
- 2 dl sugar
- 5 dl wheat flour
- 1 tsp baking soda (bikarbonat)
- 1 tsp vanilla sugar
- (optional) 1 tsp ground ginger
- 1 krm salt
- 200 g margarine
- 4 tbsp syrup
Instructions
Preheat oven to 175°C.
Mix sugar, flour, baking soda, vanilla, ginger (if using) and salt in a bowl.
Cut margarine into the mixture and add syrup. Pinch together into a smooth dough.
Divide into 4 parts. Roll 2 logs, place on parchment paper and flatten slightly with a fork.
Bake at 175°C for 12-15 minutes.
Cut diagonally into 3-4 cm wide cookies immediately out of the oven.
Repeat with remaining dough.
Notes
Salt: When baking with margarine instead of butter, add a pinch of salt to replace the saltiness that butter provides.
Aquafaba allergy: Variant 2 of the chocolate cookies uses syrup instead of aquafaba for those with allergies.
Cutting: Always cut while warm - they’ll crack if you wait until cooled.
