Can I make the dough ahead of time?

Yes! The dough for Gordon Ramsay Fondue Cookies can be made up to 2 days in advance. Just keep it chilled in the fridge until you’re ready to bake.

Do these cookies work without fondue?

Totally. They're delicious solo, with coffee, tea, or a scoop of ice cream. Fondue is just their favorite dance partner.

What’s the best chocolate for fondue?

Go for high-quality semi-sweet or dark chocolate. You’ll taste the difference—trust me. Our Gordon Ramsay Tiramisu also pairs beautifully with the same fondue sauce.

How do I keep cookies from cracking?

Make sure the dough is well mixed and the butter is fully softened. If it’s too cold or overworked, cracks can happen.

Instructions

Prep and Preheat: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.

Mix Butter and Sugar: In a large bowl, whip the softened butter with sugar until light and creamy—about 2–3 minutes.

Add Flavor: Mix in the egg yolk, vanilla, and citrus zest (if using) until fully blended.

Incorporate Dry Ingredients: Slowly add in the flour and salt, stirring until a soft, smooth dough forms.

Shape the Cookies: Roll dough into 1-inch balls or gently press into flat rounds. These shapes are fondue-friendly!

Bake: Space cookies evenly on the baking sheet and bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges turn golden.

Cool Down: Let the cookies rest for 2 minutes on the tray before moving them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Make the Fondue (Optional): Combine chocolate chips, cream, and butter in a saucepan over low heat. Stir constantly until glossy and smooth.

Notes

Want more flavor? Swap vanilla for almond extract.
Store cookies in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
Freeze dough balls for make-ahead fondue nights—just bake a minute or two longer from frozen.
