INGREDIENTS
- 2 1/4 sticks Butter
- 3/4 cup Sugar
- 1/3 cups Cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Baking soda
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- Topping
- 2 tablespoons Cocoa powder
- 1 1/2 cup Confectioners Sugar
- 1/4 cup Boiling water
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 325 and line cookie sheet with parchment paper.
Put all cookie ingredients into food processor and mix. Or if you prefer, cream butter and sugar in a bowl; when you have a light, soft, whipped mixture, beat in cocoa powder (sifting first if lumpy). Beat in flour with baking soda and baking powder.
Wearing disposable latex or vinyl gloves, pinch off about 1 tbs batter at a time (mixture will be soft and sticky). Roll into a ball, then slightly flatten into fat disks as you place them, well spaced, on a cookie sheet.
Bake each batch for 15 minutes, cookies will appear underdone but will continue to bake as they cool. Tops will be slightly cracked.
Move cookie sheet to cold surface and let sit for 15 minutes before transferring cookies to wire rack. Place newspaper underneath (to catch drips while topping them).
For topping, whisk cocoa powder, confectioners sugar, water, and vanilla extract in small saucepan over low heat until combined. Remove from heat and let sit for 10 minutes.
When cookies are cool, drizzle each with 1 tbs chocolate glaze, using back of spoon to help spread mixture. After you've iced 6 cookies, scatter with sprinkles before icing dries. Continue icing in batches until all cookies are topped.
