From RABBIT HILL INNYield:
18 CookiesDirections
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 4 teaspoons instant espresso
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2/3 cup packed light-brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 4 ounces bittersweet or semisweet chocolate, melted and cooled
- 1 tablespoon milk
- Confectioners’ sugar, for coating
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
-
In a medium bowl, sift together flour, cocoa, espresso, baking powder, and salt. With an electric mixer, cream butter and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg until well combined; mix in cooled chocolate. With mixer on low, gradually add flour mixture; beat in milk until just combined. Chill overnight OR flatten dough into a disk; wrap in plastic. Freeze until firm, about 45 minutes.
-
Line two baking sheets with parchment. Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Pour confectioners’ sugar (about 1/2 cup) into a medium bowl; working in batches, roll balls in sugar two times, letting them sit in sugar between coatings.
-
Place on prepared baking sheets, 2 inches apart. Bake until cookies have spread and coating is cracked, 7 to 10 minutes; cookies will still be soft to the touch. Cool cookies on a wire rack.
