Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1.5 cups dark chocolate chips
- 0.25 teaspoons black gel food coloring
- 0.25 cup red icing or edible glitter
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the 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 and black gel food coloring until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until a soft dough forms.
Fold in the dark chocolate chips gently with a rubber spatula.
Using your hands, shape approximately 2 tablespoons of dough into irregular, jagged dodecahedron-like shapes to mimic a Demogorgon’s chaotic aura.
Place the cookie shapes onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges look set but the centers are still slightly soft.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the cookies are cool, decorate them with streaks of red icing or edible glitter for a blood-like effect, evoking the haunting presence of the Upside Down.
Serve your Stranger Things Dodeca Demon Cookies alongside a glass of milk, and enjoy the eerie deliciousness!
