List of Ingredients
1/2 cup butter plus
1 tablespoon butter
6 tablespoons cocoa
1 2/3 cups granulated sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 cup walnuts coarsely chopped
1 cup confectioners sugar
Recipe
Melt the butter and stir in the cocoa; blend well, then cool. Add the sugar, eggs, and vanilla, and beat until smooth.
In a separate bowl sift together the flour, salt, and baking powder. Add to the cocoa mixture, then add the walnuts (we never put nuts in ours). Chill for at least 3 hours.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Take 1 teaspoon of dough and shape it into a ball. Use the rest of the dough to make the remaining balls. Roll balls in confectioners' sugar, then place on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from oven as soon as they are set; the centers should be moist. Cool.
Note: Cookies should be soft and chewy inside like a brownie.
