• In a large bowl with electric mixer, beat butter and sugar about 3 minutes until pale and fluffy.
• Beat in cocoa mixture (batter may look curdled) with mixer on low speed; gradually add flour until well blended (batter will be very stiff).
• Spread the 7 rounds of waxed paper out on countertop.
• Drop a level 1/3-cup batter in center of each round.
• Divide remaining 1/3-cup batter between rounds (about 2 t each).
