Chocolate cookies! (via my folks and tv)

Ingredients:
1 C Flour
1/2 C Cocoa powder
2 t baking powder
1/8 t salt
stick unsalted butter (let soften in pieces at room temperature)
1 t vanilla extract
1 C brown sugar
2 eggs
1/2 cup melted chocolate (ghiradelli bars or other chocolate chips)
3 sheets plastic wrap
powdered sugar
 
Place the dry ingredients into a bowl:

1 C Flour
1/2 C Cocoa powder
2 t baking powder
1/8 t salt

Mix well and set aside.

In another bowl:

1 stick unsalted butter (let soften in pieces at room temperature)
1 t vanilla extract
1 C brown sugar

Beat butter, vanilla & sugar. Mix until creamy.

Add 2 eggs and keep beating.

Add 1/2 cup melted chocolate to the mix. Beat into the mixture.

Then with wooden spoon, gently stir in dry ingredients. It should be soft -- like a brownie mix.

Set out 3 sheets of plastic wrap. Put 1/3 of mix onto one end of each sheet. Then wrap each sheet into a cylinder and place into the refridgerator for 45-60 minutes. They should be hard.

When you remove them from the fridge, unroll gently and dust them all over with powdered sugar -- and then roll them back up again (in the same sheets of plastic wrap) for at least another 30-45 minutes in the fridge.

Preheat oven to 350.

Remove from the fridge and unwrap rolls. Cut them (one at a time) into 1/2" rings and roll each ring by hand, (dip into powdered sugar so they won’t stick) press just a little and then place them on baking sheet. Bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes. They should be soft. Let them cool and enjoy!
