Chocolate Cookies
Ingredients:
|
| 1 1/4 |
cups all-purpose flour |
| 1/3 |
cup unsweetened cocoa powder |
| 1/2 |
cup (1 stick) butter, softened (See Cook's Tip) |
| 3/4 |
cup sugar |
| 1 |
egg |
| |
Additional cocoa powder |
Directions:
| In Small Batter Bowl, combine flour and cocoa powder; mix well and set aside. |
| In Classic Batter Bowl, beat butter and sugar at low speed of electric mixer until creamy. Add egg; beat until smooth. Gradually add flour mixture and beat at low speed until well blended and smooth. |
| Form dough into a 4-inch disk; wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate 1-2 hours or until firm. |
| Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly sprinkle Peace on Earth Heart Cookie Mold with additional cocoa powder; firmly press a portion of the dough into mold. Run Serrated Bread Knife flat across top of mold to trim off excess dough. For a clean edge, gently pull dough away from edge of mold with finger. |
| To release dough from mold, cover cutting board with a clean folded kitchen towel; hold mold perpendicular to cutting board and lightly tap mold on cutting board until dough starts to release. Transfer molded dough to flat Baking Stone; repeat with remaining dough. Bake 12-14 minutes or until edges are set. Cool 3 minutes on baking stone; carefully remove cookies to Stackable Cooling Rack. Cool completely. |

Cook's Tips: For best results, do not substitute tub, whipped, reduced-fat or vegetable oil spreads for the butter. The added water and air in these products can cause cookies to be flat and thin.
