Ingredients

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
granulated sugar

Steps:

Sift the flour, cocoa, baking soda and cream of tartar together in a medium bowl and with a wire whisk, stir to combine.
In a large bowl, using a hand-held mixer at medium speed, beat the butter for 30 seconds, or until creamy.
Add the sugar and continue beating for 2 to 3 minutes until the mixture is light in texture and color.
Scrape down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula.
Add the egg and vanilla extract and beat well.
At low speed beat in the flour mixture, in two additions, scraping down the sides of the bowl after each addition.
Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate.
Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 375°F.
On a well-floured surface, roll out half of dough at a time to 1/4-inch thickness.
Using a cookie cutter cut into shapes and sprinkle with granulated sugar.
Bake on an ungreased baking sheet for 5-8 minutes or until lightly browned at edges.
Cool. Decorate as desired.

These cookies are a bit too dry for my taste. I think I'll add a little more butter next time.

These cookies are the perfect balance of chocolate and sugar. They're not too sweet and they're not too bitter.

Overall, I thought these cookies were just okay. They weren't as good as I was hoping for.

I had trouble getting the cookies to spread out evenly. They ended up being more like chocolate chip bars.

I love that these cookies can be made ahead of time and frozen. It's so convenient to be able to just pop them in the oven when I need a quick treat.

These cookies are so easy to make, even my kids can help. They're also a great way to use up leftover chocolate chips.

I've tried many chocolate sugar cookie recipes, but this one is by far my favorite. The cookies are always soft and chewy, with the perfect amount of chocolate flavor.
