I first came across these cookies at a girl scout thinking day function. They were so good, I just had to get the recipe and have been making them every once in a while ever since then. I hope you’ll enjoy them as much as my family has.
Mexican Chocolate Cookies
Ingredients:
1 cup plain flour
1 tsp baking powder
½ tsp baking soda
2 tbsp cocoa powder
½ cup brown sugar
1 egg, lightly beaten
1/3 cup canola oil
1/3 cup good quality dark chocolate, cut into small pieces
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
In a mixing bowl, combine sugar, egg and oil and mix with a fork. Add the chocolate pieces and the sifted flour and cocoa powder. Mix gently!
With your hands knead the dough carefully and form balls with 1 tbsp of dough. Grease a baking tray and put the balls on the tray, leaving 1.5inches of room between them. Bake for about 12 minutes, let them rest on the tray for another 5 minutes and transfer the cookies onto a wire rack to cool.
Enjoy these beautiful chocolaty biscuits with a glass of milk!
