I ‘discovered’ this recipe by accident. While in the midst of creating another, this gluten free chocolate cinnamon cookie was born. So this past weekend, I decided to go back and give it a try.

For this recipe, I decided to use one of my favourite gadgets – my cookie press gun. I picked up this gadget many, many years ago – before they were so easy to find. When I first laid my eyes on it, I thought: what is this sweet invention, and, I must have it! And to this day, I’m so glad I gave in to my splurge. It’s perfect for when you feel like making cut-out cookies, but you’re too lazy to roll out the dough, or the dough you’ve made is not stiff enough to roll out. Plus, because the stencils are small, you get so many cookies out of one batch of dough. Perfect for mini indulgences!

I happened to have some swiss meringue vanilla buttercream on hand – perfect for filling these little choco treats.

Make sure to store the filled cookies in the refrigerator. You can choose to take them out a few minutes before eating, if you prefer the buttercream at room temperature. In my opinion though, this treat tastes much better cold from the fridge.
