Chocolate Cookies Rolled In Sugar

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined. Set aside.

3. In a separate bowl, using an electric mixer, cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

4. Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter-sugar mixture and beat until well incorporated.

5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a smooth dough forms.

6. Place the remaining 1/2 cup of granulated sugar in a small bowl.

7. Roll the cookie dough into 1-inch balls, then roll each ball in the granulated sugar until coated evenly.

8. Place the sugar-coated cookie dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

9. Using the bottom of a glass, gently flatten each cookie to about 1/4 inch thickness.

10. Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until set.

11. Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

12. Once cooled, serve and enjoy these delightful Chocolate Cookies Rolled In Sugar with a glass of cold milk or your favorite hot beverage!
