- Cocoa paste - Combine the cocoa powder and water to form a paste. The ratio of cocoa powder to water is just a guide. What you looking for is a paste consistency.4 tbsp Cocoa powder, 4 tbsp Water.
- Stencil - Ensure cookies are firm to the touch. Place a stencil on the cookie. Using a damp paintbrush, lightly dipped in the cocoa paste. Hold the stencil firmly on the cookie (which is why we need the cookies to be chilled well).
- Paint - Brush the cocoa paste on the stencil, as shown in the video. When done - lift the stencil carefully to reveal the design. Place the cookies on a parchment lined baking tray. Pro tip - Any minor cocoa paste smears can be cleaned gently with a wet paper towel.
- Chill - Chill the cookies in the fridge for 15 minutes while you preheat the oven to 375℉/190℃/ Gas mark 5.
- Bake - Bake the cookies for 10 to 12 minutes until lightly golden on the edges. Then, transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.
