Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper.
- 2. FOR THE COOKIES: In large bowl, sift together flour, salt, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon and cloves. Set aside.
- 3. In another bowl, cream sugar and shortening with a mixer until fluffy. Add eggs one at a time until well incorporated. Mix in chocolate syrup and vanilla.
- 4. Add chocolate mixture to dry ingredients. Stir until well incorporated. Mix in nuts.
- 5. Dough should form a ball, but not be sticky (if dough is too sticky, put a little flour on your hand to roll into a ball).
- 6. Roll mixture into 1 inch balls. Place balls 1 inch apart on parchment paper and bake about 12-15 minutes or until cookie is firm, but NOT DRY. Let cookies cool before frosting.
- 7. FOR THE FROSTING: Mix sugar, milk and extract to make a sugar glaze in a bowl. Dip the top of the cookies in the bowl and sit the cookies on a baking rack with wax paper underneath to catch any drippings. If you don't have one, then I'd just use wax paper. Immediately top the cookies with sprinkles before glaze dries.
- 8. Allow icing to harden overnight.
