A home baker has shared a delightful Romany Creams recipe that has captured the attention of dessert lovers online. The video, posted by Laina’s Baked Creations, shows the step-by-step process of making the popular chocolate coconut sandwich biscuits from scratch.
The baking journey begins with the preparation of the dry ingredients. Laina mixes flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder to create the base of the biscuit dough. In a separate bowl, she prepares the wet mixture, which includes soft butter to ensure a smooth, crumbly texture. The two mixtures are then combined, forming a rich and chocolatey dough ready to be shaped.

Once the dough is ready, she carefully cuts it into small, uniform pieces to ensure even baking. These are placed in the oven at 180 degrees Celsius and baked for 10 to 15 minutes until perfectly cooked. The result is a batch of crisp, chocolatey biscuits that serve as the foundation of the Romany Creams.

The magic happens during the final assembly. After the biscuits have cooled slightly, Laina melts chocolate to create the irresistible filling that binds the sandwiches together.

The biscuits are then left to rest, allowing the chocolate to set and the flavours to come together beautifully.
