Time 1h15m

Yield about 3 dozen cookies

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup granulated sugar, plus 1/2 cup for rolling
1/2 cup unsweetened Dutch-process cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
Sprinkles, mini marshmallows, mini candies or dried fruit for filling

Steps:

  • Whisk the flour, 3/4 cup granulated sugar, the cocoa powder, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. Add the melted butter and eggs and stir until combined. Cover and refrigerate the dough until firm, about 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment. Place the confectioners' sugar and the remaining 1/2 cup granulated sugar in 2 separate small bowls. Roll scant tablespoonfuls of dough into balls; roll in the granulated sugar and then in the confectioners' sugar. Place 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheets. Lightly flatten each ball with your fingers and make a deep 1/2-inch-wide indentation in the centers with your thumb. Place your choice of filling in the indentation. Bake the cookies until puffed and slightly cracked, about 10 minutes. Let cool 3 minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer to racks to cool completely.

I had some trouble getting the dough to come together at first, but I eventually got it to work.

These cookies were a little too sweet for my taste, but I'm sure I could adjust the amount of sugar next time.

I substituted dark chocolate chips for the semi-sweet chocolate chips and they turned out great!

I followed the recipe exactly and the cookies turned out perfectly. They were soft and chewy on the inside and crispy on the outside.
