Cocoa Cookies With Cocoa Glaze Recipes

FLOURLESS COCOA COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) with racks in the upper and lower thirds. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
• In a medium bowl, lightly whisk the eggs.
• Sift together the powdered sugar, cocoa powder, cinnamon, and salt. Add to the eggs, whisking until the mixture forms a smooth batter, about 1 minute. Add the vanilla and chocolate chunks and mix until fully incorporated; switch to a rubber spatula if necessary. The batter will be very thick and sticky.
• Use a No. 30 (2-tablespoon) scoop to portion the batter onto the prepared baking sheets--stagger the cookies, leaving about 1 1/2 inches between them. Sprinkle a little Maldon salt on each cookie.
• Bake the cookies, rotating the sheets from front to back and top to bottom at the halfway mark, until set around the edges and cracked on top, 10 to 12 minutes. The cookies may look slightly underbaked in the center--that's exactly what you want. Cool the cookies completely on the pans.

COCOA POWDER COOKIES.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Make sure that the butter is at room temperature, or put the butter in the microwave for about 15 seconds just to soften it up.
• Using a mixer, cream the butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
• Add the egg and vanilla extract and mix until combined.
• In a separate bowl, sift the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt.
• Add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix until everything is incorporated and you're left with a luscious chocolate dough.
• Make truffle-sized balls and place them on a parchment lined baking sheet.
• Bake for exactly 8 minutes--no longer--no less.
• Let them cool.
• Enjoy! :).
