Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1.5 cups granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 teaspoons cream of tartar
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.25 cup granulated sugar (for rolling)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for rolling)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) 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 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, cream of tartar, baking soda, salt, and 2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup of granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon for rolling.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, portion out dough and roll each piece into a ball. Coat each ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture, ensuring an even coating.
Place the dough balls 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are puffy. Be careful not to overbake.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your rich and chewy Chocolate Snickerdoodles!
