Ingredients
- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa
- 1 ¾ cups all purpose flour
- ¼ cup powdered sugar
- 1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 stick unsalted butter softened (3 oz)
- 1 ¼ cup sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup semi sweet chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar for covering cookies
Instructions
- Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper then set aside.
- Sift all of the dry ingredients (unsweetened cocoa, all purpose flour, ¼ cup powdered sugar, baking powder, and salt) into a mixing bowl then whisk them together.
- Beat butter and sugar with an electric mixer until it is light and fluffy. Next add eggs, and vanilla and mix until well combined.
- Slowly mix in your dry ingredients into the wet. Adding in about ¼ a cup at a time until combined.
- Fold in the chocolate chips but be careful to not overmix.
- Cover the bowl, and place the mixture in the refrigerator for at least two hours.
- Once chilling is done remove the cookie dough from the refrigerator. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Scoop the mixture and roll firmly into a ball of dough. Roll each ball very lightly in 2 tablespoons remaining powdered sugar and place on your prepared baking tray.
- Place the balls of dough at least 2 inches apart and bake for 12 - 14 minutes until ready. Let the cookies cool completely before serving.
Notes
- Tip: Do not skip this step. Chilling will allow your cookies to not melt or overspread when baking.
- Tip: Cover these nice and thick. Do this right before baking.
