Calories 85kcal
Ingredients
- ½ cup Butter
- ¾ cup Granulated sugar
- 2 Large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla
- 1 ¼ cup All purpose flour
- ½ cup Cocoa powder
- 1 ½ teaspoon Baking Powder
- ¾ cup Powdered sugar
Instructions
- Using a stand mixer or hand mixer on medium speed, beat the butter and sugar in a large bowl.
- Stir in the eggs and vanilla until well mixed.
- Stir in the flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder until well incorporated. The dough will be sticky.
- Chill the dough overnight, or at least for 4 hours.
- Preheat your oven to 350℉ and line your baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Remove from the fridge, wet your hands slightly and roll enough balls of cookie dough to fit on a baking sheet, put the rest of the dough back in the fridge.
- Roll the balls in powdered sugar twice and then bake for 10 minutes.
- Repeat steps 6 and 7 until all of the dough has been made into cookies, and enjoy!
Notes
-
- No Crinkles - Check the expiration date on the Baking Powder. If it is expired, the cookies don't rise, will be flat, and may not have crinkles. See FAQs below for more information.
-
- How do you keep the dough from sticking to your hands? Having slightly wet hands while rolling the cookie dough into balls will help prevent the cookie dough from sticking to your hands.
-
- How do I know when they are done? The cookies may not look fully done by 10 minutes, but they will be done. These cookies will ‘crack’ but still look slightly undercooked when they are done baking.
- Storage - Store these cookies at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
- Freezing - Place the cookies in a single layer in a freezer-safe, airtight container with parchment paper in between each layer.
