Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup dark cocoa powder unsweetened
- 1 tsp cornstarch
- 3/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup butter unsalted, softened
- 3/4 cup brown sugar packed
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and brown sugar with an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
- Add the egg and vanilla extract and mix well.
- Add the flour mixture and mix until combined. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour until firm.
- Preheat the oven to 350F. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Scoop the cookie dough onto the prepared cookie sheets to form 16 dough balls. Roll them between your hands until the surface is smooth. Place the dough balls on the cookie sheets with about 2-inches between them.
- Bake the cookies at 350F for 8-9 minutes until set. Be sure you don't over-bake the cookies or they will dry out.
- Remove the cookies from the oven and cool on the cookie sheets for 2 minutes, then transfer to wire cooling racks to finish cooling.
