Ingredients
Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 3/4 tsp salt
- 3/4 cup unsalted butter softened
- 1 1/3 cups granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 Tbsp milk
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla
- 5 tsp Red food coloring
- 1 cup powdered sugar
Instructions
Directions
- In a small mixing bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder and salt, set aside.
- In the bowl of a standing mixer (or hand mixer), whip the softened butter and granulated sugar until fluffy.
- Mix in eggs 1 at a time, until combined after each addition. Mix in milk, vanilla and red food coloring.
- Slowly add in dry ingredients on low speed and mix just until combined. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and chill 1 1/2 hours or until firm enough to shape into balls.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Pour powdered sugar into a small bowl. Remove dough from refrigerator, scoop dough out and with buttered hands, shape into balls (about 2 Tbsp each).
- Roll the balls into the powdered sugar and evenly coat. Place the covered balls on a Silpat or parchment paper lined baking sheets and flatten slightly, then bake in preheated oven 13 - 14 minutes.
- Once baked, let the cookies rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container.
