MAYAN MYSTERY COOKIES

Yield 60 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 16

Mayan Mystery Cookies (source)
Note: the recipe directs "tuck[ing] about 5 chocolate chips into the center of each one." Doesn't that seem like a lot of extra effort for what's otherwise a very simple recipe? (Lisa thought so, too.)
After thoroughly combining the vanilla into the dough, and just before chilling, I'd fold in about 6 oz. (half a standard bag) of semi- or bitter-sweet chocolate chips, check to see if that was enough chocolate for my preferences, and add more if need be.
¾ cup (1½ sticks) unsalted butter, softened
¾ cup sugar, plus more for rolling
1½ cups all-purpose flour
1½ teaspoons baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon finely and freshly ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon allspice
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 large egg
1½ teaspoons vanilla extract
Semisweet chocolate chips (see note, above)

Steps:

  • Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Cream the butter and ¾ cup sugar in a food processor. Sift the flour, baking powder, salt, spices and cocoa in a medium bowl and add to the butter mixture. Add the egg and vanilla and process until the batter is uniform. Refrigerate the dough for at least an hour. Preheat oven to 350-degrees F. Using your hands, roll the dough into balls about the width of a quarter. Tuck about 5 chocolate chips into the center of each one. Put some sugar on a flat plate and roll the balls in the sugar to cover lightly. Place the balls on the baking sheets. Bake for 8 minutes, being careful not to overbake; the cookies should be delicate and soft in the center. Let cool on the baking sheets. Makes about 5 dozen cookies.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start baking, measure and prepare all of your ingredients. This will help you stay organized and ensure that you don't miss anything.
  • Use Fresh Ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your biscuits the best flavor and texture. If possible, use organic or locally-sourced ingredients.
  • Don't Overwork the Dough: Overworking the dough will make your biscuits tough. Mix the dough just until it comes together, then stop.
  • Chill the Dough before Baking: Chilling the dough before baking will help it to rise more evenly and give it a more flaky texture.
  • Bake in a Hot Oven: Bake the biscuits in a hot oven to ensure that they rise quickly and evenly.
  • Don't Overbake the Biscuits: Overbaking the biscuits will make them dry and crumbly. Bake them just until they are golden brown.

Conclusion:

Mystery biscuits are a delicious and versatile treat that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make your own mystery biscuits at home. Whether you choose to make classic buttermilk biscuits, cheesy biscuits, or bacon and cheddar biscuits, you're sure to enjoy these fluffy, flaky biscuits.
