Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 113 grams unsalted butter
- 150 grams granulated sugar
- 50 grams brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 150 grams all-purpose flour
- 30 grams unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 15 milliliters milk
- 50 grams powdered sugar
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing well until fully incorporated.
In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until the dough comes together. The dough will be thick.
Add the milk and mix to loosen the dough slightly, making it pliable for shaping.
Scoop out 1-tablespoon portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place the balls on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Using the bottom of a glass or your palm, gently flatten each ball to about 1/4 inch thick.
Lightly sprinkle powdered sugar over each cookie for a frosted effect.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set. The center may look slightly soft, and that is fine.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool on the trays for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your Chocolate Snap Cookies with a cold glass of milk or your favorite coffee!
