Recipe Introduction


We've added chocolate to these crinkle-top sugar-and-spice cookies.





List of Ingredients



• 1/2 cup butter, softened
  
• 1 cup sugar
  
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  
• 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  
• 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
  
• 1 egg
  
• 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
  
• 2 tablespoons sugar
  
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  






Instructions



1. In a large mixing bowl, beat butter with an electric mixer on medium to high speed 30 seconds. Add the 1 cup sugar, soda, and cream of tartar. Beat until combined. Beat in egg. Beat in cocoa powder and as much of the flour as you can with the mixer. Stir in any remaining flour.
   
2. Drop by slightly rounded teaspoons 2 inches apart onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Stir together remaining sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle dough with sugar-cinnamon mixture. Bake in a 375 degree F. oven for 9 to 11 minutes or until edges are firm. Cool on wire racks.
