Ingredients
- ½ cup butter
- 2 large eggs
- 1 ¼ cup brown sugar
- 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ⅔ cup icing or powdered sugar approximately
- ⅔ cup dark cocoa powder unsweetened
Instructions
- Gather the ingredients to make this recipe.
- In a saucepan, over medium heat, melt your butter.
- Remove from heat and add brown sugar and cocoa powder.
- Stir until totally blended together. Set aside until cool.
- Once cool, add eggs and stir until combined.
- Add flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Refrigerate dough for at least an hour.
- Place icing or powdered sugar into a shallow bowl.
- Remove dough from your refrigerator and roll into 1 ½ - 2 inch balls.
- Roll each ball around in your icing or powdered sugar until coated and place on a prepared baking sheet pan.
- Repeat this process until all of your cookies are totally coated in powdered sugar. Make sure they are totally covered. You cannot put on too much!
- NOTE: The cookies need to go back into the refrigerator. If you can't fit a baking sheet into your fridge, place rolled cookie balls on a plate, covered in parchment, to refrigerate and then transfer them to the baking pan just before baking.
- Refrigerate your cookies for another 30 minutes.
- When ready to bake, preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
- Remove the refrigerated cookies and bake for 8-10 minutes or until the cookies start to crack around edges.
- Let cool for 5 minutes before removing from the baking sheet and placing on to a wire rack.
- Eat and enjoy!
Notes
- Expert Tips:
- Don't skip refrigerating the dough. The chilled cookie dough is what gives chocolate fudge cookies their distinctive cracked surface.
- Preheat the oven. A hot oven means the cookies start cooking right away and come out perfectly crinkled on top.
- Use dark cocoa powder for the best fudge flavor.
- Shape cookie balls into even sizes. You can use a spoon or cookie scoop if it makes it easier to divide up the dough evenly.
