Ingredients
- ½ cup salted butter softened
- ¾ cup dark brown sugar
- ¾ cup + 2 tablespoons white granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- ⅔ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ¼ cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a large mixing bowl, use a mixer to cream together the butter, dark brown sugar, and 3/4 cup granulated sugar until smooth and creamy. Set aside the additional 2 tablespoons of sugar for later.
- Whisk in the eggs until they are fully incorporated into the creamed butter and sugar. Add the vanilla and stir until thoroughly mixed.
- Gently whisk in the flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder until no clumps of dry flour or cocoa powder remain in the cookie dough.
- In a small separate bowl, combine the powdered sugar and the cornstarch. Mix until thoroughly combined.
- Divide or scoop the dough into balls, approximately 1 ½ tablespoons each.
- Roll each of the cookie dough balls in the remaining 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar and then in the powdered sugar and cornstarch mixture.
- Place 6 cookies at a time on a cookie sheet and bake on the top rack of the oven for 11 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. Remove them to a cooling rack to cool completely.
- Makes about 16 cookies.
Notes
- Don’t skip rolling the cookies in granulated sugar. The granulated sugar forms a barrier between the cookie dough and the powdered sugar that helps give the cookies the distinctive crinkled look.
- Completely cooled cookies may be stored in an airtight container on the counter for up to 1 week. May be frozen for up to 3 months.
