These cookies were claimed to be Food and Wine's Favorite Bake Sale Cookie so naturally I had to try them. The recipe came together quickly and there were enough that I was able to freeze some for later.
Confession. I baked mine too long meaning that they were more crisp than I would have liked. That said, they did go well with coffee and in the future just check them after 10 minutes, then again at 12.
{Recipe thanks to Food and Wine}
{Ingredients You'll Need}
- 1 3/4 cups flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- pinch of salt
- 1 stick unsalted butter, softened
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 2 ounces unsweetened chocolate, melted and cooled
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
1. Preheat the oven to 400. Melt the chocolate in a double boiler and allow it to cool.
2. In a bowl sift the flour with the baking soda, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl beat the butter with 1 cup of sugar until creamy then add in the melted chocolate and the egg and beat until smooth.
3. Beat in the dry ingredients until everything is incorporated then in a separate bowl mix the remaining 1/2 cup sugar and cinnamon. Form the dough into 1 inch balls and roll in the cinnamon-sugar. Place the cookies on a baking sheet lined with parchment and flatten each ball just a bit.
4. Bake for 12-14 minutes, checking after 10 minutes. When the cookies are cracked and puffed they are done. Transfer them to a cooling rack and enjoy later, or as soon as they are warm enough to eat!
