Instructions

1. Prepare the Cookie Dough
  - - In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter and sugar until smooth.
  - - Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
  - - Sift in the plain flour, cornflour, bicarbonate of soda, baking powder, and salt. Stir until a soft dough forms.
  - - Gently fold in the Kinder chocolate chunks, ensuring they are evenly distributed.

1. Shape and Bake
  - - Preheat your oven to 180°C/160°C (fan). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  - - Scoop out 2-3 tablespoons of dough for each cookie and shape into balls. Place them on the baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.
  - - Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until the edges are set while the centers remain soft.
  - - Allow the cookies to cool completely on a wire rack before adding the icing.

1. Make the Kinder Buttercream Icing
  - - In a medium bowl, beat the softened butter until light and fluffy.
  - - Gradually add the icing sugar, beating until fully combined and smooth.
  - - Mix in the melted Kinder chocolate until the icing is creamy and well-blended.

1. Assemble the Cookies
  - - Once the cookies are fully cooled, spread or pipe the Kinder buttercream icing on top of each one.
  - - Decorate with additional Kinder chocolate pieces for an extra indulgent touch.

1. Serve and Enjoy
  - - These cookies are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
