The cookies are easy to make and require just a few simple ingredients. No matter if you're a beginner baker or a seasoned professional, these cookies are sure to be a hit!
These cookies are made with cocoa powder, butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract. After the dough is made, it's chilled in the refrigerator before being rolled into balls and coated in powdered sugar. They then bake in the oven for about 10 minutes before being removed and allowed to cool.
Ingredients
For this recipe you will need the following ingredients:
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted
- 3/4 cup white sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar for coating
Instructions
To make the cookies, start by preheating the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, beat the melted butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until combined. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
Once the dough is chilled, use a tablespoon to scoop out balls of the dough and roll them in your hands to make them round. Roll each ball in the powdered sugar and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes or until the cookies are set and slightly crisp on the edges.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
