List of Ingredients




6 oz unsweetened chocolate
2 cups + 2 Tbsp all purpose flour
1 Tbsp ground cinnamon
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
1/4 tsp ground cloves
1 3/4 cups sugar
1/2 cup (1 stick) margarine or butter at room temperature
3 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla
2/3 cup powered sugar
50-60 cherry halves or almond slivers


Recipe



Chop chocolate and melt in top of double boiler until smooth. Cool. Combine flour and next five ingredients in medium bowl. Using electric mixer, beat 1 3/4 cups sugar and margarine in large bowl until light. Beat in eggs, one at a time, then vanilla and chocolate. Gradually add dry ingredients, mixing until combined. Chill dough until firm, about 2 hrs in refrigerator, 1 hr in freezer. Preheat oven to 350. But parchment paper on twp cookie sheets. Placed powered sugar in shallow pan. Form dough into less than 1 inch balls, and roll each in sugar to lightly coat. Arrange cookies on baking sheets, spacing 1 1/2 inches apart. Press one cherry half into center of each cookie. Bake until cookies puff and crack, 12-18 minutes. Cool. Cookies will be crisp first day, brownie-like second day.
