Description

Ingredients

• 1 cup / 5oz / 141g - all purpose flour
• 1 tbsp / 7g - good quality cocoa powder
• ½ tsp - salt
• ¼ cup / 1.85oz / 50g - granulated sugar
• 1 tsp - baking powder
• 3 tbsp - unsalted butter, tempered, cut into small cubes

Directions

• In a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, mix together the flour, cocoa powder, salt, sugar, and baking powder.
• On medium speed, add the butter and mix until the mixture resembles wet sand.
• Add the milk and mix until the mixture forms a ball dough. Wrap with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350F. Prepare a baking sheet with a sheet of parchment. Set aside.
• On a lightly floured surface, role the dough out until its ⅛ thin. Punch out circles with a round cookie cutter and transfer to the baking sheet.
• Bake for 15 minutes or until crispy and lightly golden. Let cool.
• In a microwave or double boiler, melt the dark chocolate. Drizzle the cookies with the chocolate and while still melted, top the chocolate with cocoa nibs.
