CHOCOLATE BUTTER COOKIES

Steps:

• Combine sugar and butter in bowl. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until creamy. Add egg and almond extract; continue beating until well mixed.
• Combine flour, cocoa and salt in another bowl. Add flour mixture gradually to butter mixture, beating at low speed and scraping bowl often, until well mixed.
• Divide dough into thirds. Wrap each third in plastic food wrap; refrigerate 2 hours or overnight until firm.
• Heat oven to 375°F.
• Shape dough with floured hands, one-third at a time (keep remaining dough refrigerated), into 1-inch balls. Form balls into desired shapes (balls, squares, logs, etc.) or follow variations as directed below. Place 1 inch apart onto ungreased cookie sheets. Bake 7-9 minutes or until set.

MOIST CHOCOLATE COOKIES WITH COCOA POWDER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F(177C°). Line baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mat. Set aside.
• Put the flour, cocoa powder and baking soda in a small bowl and mix well. Set aside.
• Melt the butter in a small pan over medium heat until it is halfway melted. Take it from the heat and stir until it is all melted. Set aside to cool.
• Place the sugar in a big bowl and add the butter, mix well. Then add in the egg and vanilla, stir until combined.
• Add the flour mixture in 2 batches and stir until all combined well.
• Roll the dough into 52-53 gram (2 and ½ tablespoon) balls and place them on the baking sheet. Alternatively, you can divide the dough equally into 10 pieces and roll each into a ball.
• Bake for 8-11 minutes or until the cookies are slightly set. The top of the cookies shouldn't be wet but soft. They will be too soft to handle. Remove the cookies from the oven so that they can keep their moistness. Let them cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes or until the bottom of the cookies are firm enough. The cookies will be a little bit puffy. You can slightly press the cookies with the back of a spoon.
