Best 7 Cocoa Quickies Recipes

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.

NO-BAKE CHOCOLATE COCONUT COOKIES

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with waxed paper.
• Mix oats and coconut in a large bowl until thoroughly combined.
• Stir sugar, cocoa powder, milk, and margarine together in a saucepan over medium heat until the mixture is smooth. Bring to a boil and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Pour over the oats and coconut and quickly mix to coat. Drop by tablespoon onto prepared baking sheet; let cookies cool and harden. Store in an airtight container.

NO-BAKE CHOCOLATE QUICKIES

Steps:

• In a saucepan add butter, sugar, cocoa and milk.
• Bring to boil, stirring constantly. After 3 minutes remove from heat.
• Stir in vanilla and oats.
• Drop by spoonful onto wax paper.
• Let sit till firm, or eat immediately!

HOT COCOA COOKIES

Steps:

• Beat the butter and sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the egg and vanilla and beat until incorporated. Reduce the mixer speed to low; add the flour mixture in 2 batches and beat until just incorporated. Divide the dough in half, wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour and up to 1 day.
• Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Working with 1 piece of dough at a time, dust the dough generously with flour and roll out between 2 pieces of parchment paper until about 1/8 inch thick. Cut out shapes using 2-to-4-inch cookie cutters and transfer to the prepared baking sheets. Gather the scraps and refrigerate until firm; reroll once to cut out more cookies. Refrigerate the cutouts until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Bake the cookies, switching the position of the pans halfway through, until slightly puffed and darker around the edges, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes on the baking sheets, then transfer to racks to cool completely. Sandwich the cookies with the marshmallow cream.

QUICKIE COOKIES (NO-BAKES)

Steps:

• 1. Mix the sugar, cocoa, butter and milk in a saucepan. Bring to a strong boil for 1 & 1/2 to 2 & 1/2 minutes NO LONGER.
• 2. Add vanilla and peanut butter; stir quickly and thoroughly to melt peanut butter. Add oats and mix quickly...this step must be where the quickie comes from in the title of quickie cookies :-)
• 3. Again, quickly pour mixture in a greased dish (13X9) or whatever you have. Press into pan evenly. When cooled, cut into squares.
• 4. *Note* My mom dropped spoonfuls on wax paper, but I find it easier to put it all in a dish and let it cool. I think to have enough time to drop by spoonfuls before the mix hardens, I would only boil the mixture for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes.

COCOA OATMEAL COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Beat butter or margarine and sugars until creamy. Add eggs and vanilla; beat well. Add combined flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt; mix well. Stir in oats and raisins, mix well.
• Drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets. Bake 10 to 12 minutes, until cookies are almost set. Do not overbake. Cool 1 minute on cookies sheets, then move to wire racks. Cool - store tightly covered.

CHOCOLATE QUICKIES (NO BAKE)

Steps:

• Combine margarine, sugar, milk, cocoa, and salt in a heavy pot and bring to boil over medium heat for 1 1/2 minutes.
• Remove from hot burner.
• Add oats, peanut butter, and vanilla.
• Add raisins/nuts if desired.
• Mix well.
• Drop by teaspoon on waxed paper and let cool.
• I have no idea how many this recipe makes-- having never counted them so this will be a guess.
