These are the most delicious chocolate cookies
-- especially if made with a
good
quality cocoa. The hint of pepper -- though
not recognizable, gives a slight
bit
zip to the cookie.
1 1/2 C (3 sticks) Unsalted butter
1 1/4 C Sugar
2lg Eggs, lightly beaten
3 C Sifted all-purpose flour
1 1/2C Unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 tsp Freshly ground black pepper
pinch of Cayenne pepper
1 tsp ground cinnamon
4-6 oz Semisweet chocolate, for decoration
Cream the butter and sugar. Add the eggs and beat until fluffy.
Sift together the dry ingredients. Add to the butter mixture and beat
until
well mixed; if dough seems too soft, add up to 1/4 cup more flour.
Shape into a flattened round, wrap, and refrigerate at least 1 hour.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. and line baking sheets with parchment
paper.
On a well-floured board, roll out the dough until 1/8 inch thick. (It's
best
to divide and roll out a quarter or third of the dough at a time,
leaving
the
remainder in the refrigerator. Try to be careful not to get the flour
dusted
on the top of the dough as the cookies are not quite as pretty
then.) Cut
dough into shapes and set 1 to 2 inches apart on baking sheets. Leftover
dough
can be rolled and cut once more.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or just until crisp; do not allow to darken.
Cool on
racks.
Melt the chocolate and drizzle over the cooled cookies in a haphazard
fashion;
allow to harden completely before serving.
Yield: 3-4 dozen
