Yield: 12 cookies
Cuisine: American
Ingredients: 1 cup all-purpose flour; 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder; 1/2 teaspoon baking soda; 1/4 teaspoon salt; 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened; 2/3 cup granulated sugar; 1 large egg; 1 teaspoon vanilla extract; 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips; 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts; Powdered sugar, for rolling

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined. Set this dry mixture aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture, and beat until smooth and well incorporated.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a thick cookie dough forms.
Stir in the mini chocolate chips and chopped nuts until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Place some powdered sugar in a shallow bowl. Using a small cookie scoop or tablespoon, scoop out portions of cookie dough and roll them into balls.
Roll each dough ball in the powdered sugar until fully coated, then place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake the Mud Ball Cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still slightly soft.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once the cookies have cooled, you can serve them and enjoy these delightful Mud Ball Cookies with a glass of cold milk or your favorite hot beverage.
