It's about time for holiday baking. These little cookies are perfect for your holiday gatherings. I took these to a "girl's night" scrapbooking party and came home with an empty plate. They taste like mini brownies.
Ingredients
1 3/4 cups all purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
2 oz. unsweetened chocolate, melted and cooled
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
1/2 cup powdered sugar
Combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In large mixing bowl, beat butter and sugar until well blended. Beat in eggs. Add melted chocolate and continue beating until smooth. Gradually beat in flour mixture. Stir in chocolate chips. Cover and chill 1-2 hours or until the dough is easy to handle.
When dough is ready, preheat oven to 350.
Coat your hands with powdered sugar (so dough doesn't stick). Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Roll each dough ball in powdered sugar. Place on ungreased cookie sheet, spacing 1-inch apart.
Bake 10-12 minutes or until edges are set and tops are crackled. Cool on wire rack.
Makes about 3 dozen cookies.
