Jimi Oliver Chocolate Rye Cookies. Recipes from Jamie Oliver's Jamie & Friends: DIY Jar Cookies and Lamb Pie

Who organizes this wonderful cookie marathon in December, kindly allowed me to post several recipes at once. It was just very difficult for me to choose only one recipe, and since there were a lot of people who wanted to bake, I got one day, and there will be three recipes at once :) These are Jamie Oliver's gingerbread cookies, William Kerley's Florentine cookies and white chocolate cookies according to the recipe of Pierre Herme.

The tradition also requires a New Year or Christmas story from the participant. When I was little, my mother always involved me in the preparation of holiday desserts, I cut out cookies, decorated them. Then we didn’t have any beautiful metal special molds, she made patterns from cardboard, and I already cut cookies out of dough with a knife. Then, at my relatives' dacha, I leafed through the only recently appeared magazines "Burda Moden". And there were beautiful photos of the Christmas decoration of the house, decor of gifts, recipes for magical sweets. For me at that time, many ingredients were completely unavailable, and most of the recipes read like good fantasy. It was hard for me to imagine that after many years I would be able to buy a variety of molds, almonds, dyes, spices for gingerbread, candied ginger, sugar sprinkles, etc. Now I can easily choose any recipe, and I have everything I need at home :) Over the past year, the number of various forms, chocolate, nuts and other extremely important things in my kitchen has grown several times :) And now, as soon as even the slightest time window, with great pleasure I indulge in my beloved business - preparing sweet gifts for dear and beloved people for the New Year.

I take this opportunity to congratulate everyone who celebrates Merry Christmas today!

And if suddenly someone has not yet decided what to bake for these holidays, then I complicate the task by adding more ...

For shortbread


  • 130 g butter

  • 70 g sugar

  • 130 g flour

  • 70 semolina or cornmeal

Beat butter with sugar, add both types of flour. Mix lightly, and then knead with your hands until a homogeneous dough is obtained.

Lay on a baking sheet in a frame with a layer of 2 cm thick, smooth. prick with a fork and bake in a preheated oven at 150 degrees for about 50 minutes.

Cool, turn into crumbs with your hands.

For the gingerbread


  • 400 g shortbread crumbs

  • 170 g brown sugar

  • 3 teaspoons without a hill of ground ginger

  • 40 g candied citrus fruits

  • 40 g candied ginger

  • 70 g flour

  • a pinch of baking powder

  • 80 g honey (40 light and 40 dark)

  • 70 g butter

Mix shortbread crumbs, 2 teaspoons of ground ginger and sugar. Set aside 100 g of the resulting mixture, and add 1 teaspoon of ground ginger, all candied fruits, flour and baking powder to the rest. To stir thoroughly.

Heat both types of honey with butter in a large saucepan, add the resulting gingerbread dough and stir. Put on a baking sheet in a frame 20 by 35 (I have 22 by 22), smooth and tamp.
Bake in a preheated oven at 170 degrees for 10 minutes.

Sprinkle the remaining crumble over the still hot biscuits, cut into strips and let cool on a baking sheet.

1. A very unusual gingerbread cookie, both in design and taste. Apparently it's about candied oranges and sand-ginger crumbs on top. By the way, it crumbles very much in the process of eating the liver, so it’s better to eat it over a plate :)

2. Very homemade cookies with a cup of hot tea.

Florentine Shortbread Cookies by William Kerley

For the chocolate shortbread base


  • 250 g flour

  • 50 g cocoa powder

  • 185 g butter at room temperature

  • 140 g sugar

  • 25 g eggs (1/2)

  • 20 g ground almonds

Beat the butter with sugar, add the egg, and then the sifted flour with cocoa and almonds. Knead the dough, roll into a ball, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Roll out a rectangle 1 cm thick from the dough, put it on a baking sheet on a silicone mat in a frame 11 by 35 (I have 22 by 22), prick with a fork to release steam. Keep in refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

Bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for 20 minutes. At this time, prepare the top layer.

For the top layer


  • 20 ml cream 35%

  • 65 g butter

  • 65 g powdered sugar

  • 65 g liquid glucose

  • 80 g almond flakes

  • 50 g cocoa nibs

Mix butter, powder and glucose and bring to a boil. Cool and add cocoa nibs and almond petals, mix gently.

Put this mixture on top of the sand base baked for 20 minutes, spread evenly and bake for 10 minutes at 240 degrees until golden brown.

Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, remove the frame and cut into squares with a side of about 5-6 cm.

3. I have repeatedly made various versions of Florentine cookies, but so far this recipe is my favorite in the near future. Cocoa nibs add a special charm to this cookie and perfectly emphasizes the delicate chocolate-short base.

4. The cookies hold their shape perfectly, look smart and are perfect for sweet Christmas gifts.

Cookies with white chocolate according to the recipe of Pierre Herme

For cookies


  • 260 g flour

  • 5 g baking powder

  • 3 g drinking soda

  • 170 g softened butter

  • 190 g cane sugar

  • 5 g salt

  • 75 g eggs (1.5)

  • 135 g blanched almonds

  • 200 g white chocolate

Beat butter with sugar and salt, add eggs and beat for 3 minutes.

Coarsely chop the almonds, cut the chocolate into pieces. Add the almonds and chocolate to the butter mixture immediately, along with the sifted flour and baking soda.

Roll up a sausage with a diameter of 6 cm, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

Remove the dough from the refrigerator and cut into slices 1 cm thick. Bake in an oven preheated to 170 degrees for 12 minutes, cool on a wire rack.

I made a sausage with a diameter of 5 cm, but next time I will do even less, as the cookies increase in size during baking. And even so, the cookies turned out to be too big in my opinion. On a baking sheet 30 by 40, no more than 9 pieces should be laid, leaving large gaps between the circles of dough.

5. Delicate crumbly shortbread cookies. And pieces of almonds and sweet chocolate contrast nicely with the slight saltiness of the dough.

6. For some reason, the recipe says that it should be stored in the refrigerator. But in my opinion it does not contain perishable ingredients that require a mandatory refrigerator. So I'll just keep it in a tightly closed box so that it doesn't dry out.

“I can’t even say how many years I dreamed about this book, the thickest of all my creations. I tried very hard to make it a book for all time.

What is the easiest baking you can imagine? I have already published a simple recipe, but today we generally have the basis of all the basics.

If there is no time for this, you can send the oil for 5-10 minutes in the microwave for a minute. power. Be careful with the microwave, remember that the butter should be soft, but not melted.

Half an hour before cooking, turn on the oven to heat up to 150 degrees Celsius, top-bottom mode.

There are many ways to prepare the dough: beat the butter with sugar with a large spoon / fork, a mixer or a planetary mixer. You can choose any path, I chose the last one.

mix 250 gr butter room temperature and 130 gr. Sahara in a large bowl or mixer bowl.

Now beat them into a fluffy light mass. If there is no mixer, of course, you will have to tighten your muscles a little. If there is, then beat the mass for about 2 minutes.

Sift into a bowl 250 gr. wheat flour first grade.

Add 130 gr. semolina. Instead of semolina, you can also use cornmeal or semolina.

Mix the mixture as far as possible in the bowl with a spatula or spoon, then turn out onto a floured work surface and knead until smooth.


Next, you will need a square mold with a side of +/- 22 cm. Roll out the dough to a thickness of 2 cm. Lubricate the mold with butter, transfer the dough into it and already inside tamp it around the perimeter of the mold. Press the edges well.

If there is no form of the right size (like mine), take a baking sheet with high sides (although this is not critical) and put the dough into it, form a square with sides of about 20 cm. By the way, I didn’t even roll out the dough, I sent the ball to the baking sheet and rammed with hands. As a result, you should get a layer of dough with a thickness of about 1-1.2 cm.

Place the baking sheet in the oven on a medium rack for 55 minutes.

When you get it, sprinkle generously with sugar on top, and when it cools slightly (after 5-10 minutes), cut the cookies into portioned pieces.
