Chocolate Snow Cookies

Ingredients

• 2 1/2 cups unbleached all purpose flour
• 1/2 cup plus one tablespoon unsweetened cocoa
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 cup packed light brown sugar
• 4 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla
• 1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
• 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar

Instructions

1. In a medium bowl whisk together flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
2. In a mixer beat both sugars, eggs and vanilla on high speed until light and airy. Add melted butter and beat until well combined. Gradually add flour mixture and mix well. The batter will be a similar consistency to brownie batter.
3. Cover batter with plastic wrap and refrigerate for two hours to firm up.
4. Preheat oven to 350 F. Line insulated baking sheets with parchment paper.
5. From the dough, make one-inch balls and roll in powdered sugar. Place on baking sheet 2 inches apart. Bake for 10 minutes. Do not over bake. They will appear a bit glossy on top, so don't be tempted to bake much longer.
6. Remove from oven and cool on pan 4-5 minutes then carefully transfer cookies to cooling rack to cool completely. Cookies will be chewy.
