Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a food processor, combine all-purpose flour, Dutch-process cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, fine sea salt, and granulated sugar. Pulse until well combined.
  3. Add chunks of unsalted butter to the dry mixture, blending until it resembles coarse crumbs. Add one large egg and mix until a smooth dough forms.
  4. Scoop portions of the dough, roll into balls, and flatten to about 1/8-inch thickness. Chill the formed cookies for about 15 minutes.
  5. Place chilled cookie shapes on baking sheets and bake for approximately 10 minutes, then cool completely.
  6. In a stand mixer, beat unsalted butter and vanilla extract. Gradually add powdered sugar until light and fluffy.
  7. Spread filling between two cookies, adjusting the amount for a double-stuffed effect.
