My husband has said several times that when he was a kid his favorite cookie was keebler opera cream and they are no longer made. I have never had one of these and I would like to find a similar cookie or even make a cookie like this for him. He has told me that if golden oreos had a lemon flavor to them then they would be close to an opera cream cookie. Please help me if you can, I would really like to surprise him with this. Thank you so much for your help!
Does anyone know of a cookie similar to keebler opera cream or a recipe for a similar cookie?microsoft visual studio
Let's try and make this his new favorite:
Lemon Cream filled Cookies
INGREDIENTS:
200gr butter at room temperature
100gr sugar
1 egg yolk
juice of 1 lemon
2 cups (240 g) flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
pinch of salt
For the filling
50gr butter
2 teaspoonfuls of lemon juice
50gr caster sugar
Prep:
Whip the butter and sugar until creamy. Add the egg yolk and keep beating until everything is well mixed.
Sift the flour with the salt and the baking powder and add to the first preparation together with the lemon juice.
Knead the dough gently, wrap it in polythene and chill for at least one hour.
Roll out all the dough until it is 0.5 cm thick and cut out 3cm circles with a floured cutter.
Place them on a baking sheet (without greasing) and bake in a moderately hot oven for 10 minutes.
Remove from the baking sheet and cool on a wire rack.
Filling: Whip the butter with the caster sugar until creamy. Add the juice of one lemon.
Spread this lemon cream over half of the cookies. Cover each one of them with the other
half and press gently.
Roll the borders of the filled cookies on ground nuts.
Sprinkle with caster sugar before serving.
COOK鈥橲 TIP: Once baked, the cookies are fragile. It would be better if you could wait for a day before filling them with the lemon cream.
Does anyone know of a cookie similar to keebler opera cream or a recipe for a similar cookie?ie internet explorerWal-Mart has a cookie that tastes very similar to the Keebler Chocolate Creme Filled Opera Cookies; not sure of the name, but it is the Wal-Mart brand and I'm sure your husband can identify them if he ever had the chocolate version (my grandmother bought lemon sometimes, but mostly the chocolate!)
