Recipe Introduction


Here's a chocolate alternative to typical cookie-cutter sugar cookies. Drizzle icing on a few for an added treat.


List of Ingredients




4 ounces semisweet baking chocolate
2 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 pound unsalted butter
1 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
1 tablespoon milk
3/4 cup chopped walnuts

Recipe



Melt chocolate over hot (but not boiling) water in a double boiler; set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, sift together flour, baking soda and baking powder; set aside.
In a separate bowl, cream butter. Slowly add sugar and vanilla; beating well. Stir in eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add the cooled chocolate; blend well. Stir in dry ingredients and milk in alternating additions; fold in walnuts. Cover and refrigerate dough for 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a baking sheet; set aside.
Roll chilled dough 1/4-inch thick, cut into rounds or other shapes. Place on baking sheet 2-inches apart.
Bake 6 to 8 minutes. Cool completed on wire rack.
