Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar cookie mix and cocoa powder until combined.
- Using a hand or stand mixer, beat in the softened salted butter, large egg and heavy cream until smooth and combined.
- Pour the granulated white sugar into a shallow bowl and then use a 1 ½ Tablespoon cookie scoop to scoop out cookie dough and roll it into a ball.
- Roll each ball in the sugar to coat the dough and then place on the prepared baking sheets, about 1 ½ inches apart.
- Bake the cookies, one sheet at a time, for 10-14 minutes or until cracked all over and set on the edges.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 3 minutes and then indent the center of each cookie with a rounded teaspoon and remove to a cooling rack.
- Make the ganache by placing the chocolate chips in a heat safe bowl and heating the heavy cream in the microwave or stove top just until steaming. Do not boil and be sure to stir frequently.
- Pour the hot cream over the chocolate chips and let sit for 5 minutes.
- Whisk together the chocolate chips and cream until thick and smooth and then place about 1 teaspoon of ganache in the center of each prepared cookie.
- Allow the cookies and ganache to cool completely and then serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container.
Notes
- Place leftover cookies into an airtight container or ziptop plastic bag and store at room temperature for up to 5 days. Leftover cookies can be frozen too. Just transfer them to an airtight container or freezer safe bag and store in the freezer for up to 3 months.
