These are a light, chocolatey cookie. The original recipe calls for rolling in powdered sugar. We roll them in a mixture of powdered sugar and cocoa powder. They don't resemble 'snowballs' but they sure are good!
- 2 cups flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 3/4 cup butter
- 3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 oz semi-sweet chocolate, melted
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1/4 cup milk
- powdered sugar
- cocoa powder
Sift dry ingredients together. Cream butter with sugar until light. Beat in melted chocolate, egg, vanilla, and milk.
Mix in dry ingredients a little at a time to make a stiff dough. Refrigerate overnight.
Roll dough into marble-sized balls and place 2" apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake at 350 for about 8 minutes.
Cool on wire racks. Roll in mixture of cocoa powder and powdered sugar.
