  • 1 ½ teaspoons cream of tartar

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350F (175C) and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine melted butter and cocoa powder and whisk until smooth.
  3. Add sugars and stir until combined.
  4. Stir in eggs and vanilla extract.
  5. In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.
  6. Gradually add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients. I like to do slowly, in 4-5 parts, as this makes a stiff dough and adding all of the flour at once will make it difficult to absorb and could leave you with a crumbly, unworkable dough.
  7. In a separate small mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, cinnamon, and cocoa powder for rolling.
  8. Scoop dough into 1 ½ Tablespoon sized scoops and roll between your palms to form a smooth ball. Roll evenly through cinnamon sugar, then transfer to prepared baking sheet, spacing cookies at least 2” apart. For flatter cookies, gently press down to flatten them before baking.
  9. Transfer to center rack of 350F (175C) oven and bake for 8 minutes. Allow cookies to cool completely on baking sheet before enjoying.

Notes

  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
