Ingredients

Servings
  • 17.5 ounces peanut butter cookie mix (1 bag/box)
  • ¼ cup cocoa powder
  • 1 large egg
  • 5 tablespoons butter melted (⅝ stick, salted
  • granulated sugar optional, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F and line one or two large baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
  2. Whisk the cookie mix and cocoa powder together in a large mixing bowl.
  3. Using a hand mixer, beat in the egg and melted butter until the dough is smooth, about 2 minutes.
  4. Using a 1½-tablespoon cookie portion scoop, make balls of dough and place them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet(s).
  5. Use a fork to gently press a criss-cross pattern into the top of the cookies but don’t squash them totally flat.
  6. Sprinkle each cookie with a little sugar, optional, and then bake for 7-10 minutes, or just until the edges are set.
  7. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 3-5 minutes on the baking sheet before removing to a cooling rack or serving warm.
