Whack-A-Mole Cocoa Oatmeal Cookies
Overview
To use up the extra oatmeal, I made these prairie dog cookies. The prairie dogs are finger cookies, the facial features are painted in chocolate, and the mounds are cocoa oatmeal cookies. . .

Ingredients
Steps
-
The first step is to make a "small mound". First wash the peanuts, put them in the middle rack of the oven, and bake them at 150 degrees for about 30 minutes, shaking and turning them twice. After cooling, rub off the skin and crush with the back of a knife
-
After the milk is warm, sprinkle in the oatmeal and mix well. Add butter and sugar. Melt over low heat and mix well
-
Add cocoa powder, chocolate sauce and peanut chips and mix well
-
Stir into a thick but not sticky, shiny mixture
-
Find a piece of pipe slightly thicker than your finger, pile the mixture prepared in the previous step around it to form a cone-shaped mound, and remove the pipe
-
Place in the middle rack of the preheated oven, bake at 170 degrees for about 20 minutes, take out and let cool and set aside
-
The second step is to make the base. According to the ordinary cocoa butter biscuit recipe, cut out a shape that is about the same size as the bottom of the "mound", bake it and let it cool for later use
-
The third step is to make the groundhog. Add egg whites and lemon juice, add the fine sugar in the accessories in three batches, beat until 9 points
-
Mix evenly with beaten egg yolk
-
Sift in the flour and cocoa powder and mix well
-
Put it into a piping bag, cut a hole with a diameter smaller than the mound outlet, and squeeze the batter into strips of uneven length on a baking sheet lined with oil paper
-
Place in the middle rack of the preheated oven and heat up and down to 170 degrees for about 10-15 minutes
-
After cooling slightly, use melted dark chocolate to decorate the marmot with two round ears and a round nose. Use white chocolate to dot two round eyes and two "teeth", and dot black eyeballs on the white ones. Use a little melted chocolate to stick the groundhogs of different heights on the base and cover them with small mounds of soil
-
The base is an ordinary cocoa butter biscuit, so I won’t repeat it here. 2. The sweetness can be increased or decreased according to personal taste. 3. If you don’t have a suitable tube, you can also use lipstick shells to make a “mound”.
