5. Make the filling. Place chopped chocolate in a small bowl. In a small saucepan over medium heat, warm the cream and corn syrup until boiling, then remove from heat. Slowly pour the hot cream over the chocolate. Stir with a rubber spatula until all the chocolate is melted and thoroughly combined with the cream. Let cool for 10–15 minutes. Spread 1–1½ teaspoons of the filling onto the bottom side of half of the cookies, top with the remaining cookie halves, and gently press together. Let stand for 20–30 minutes before serving.
