Ingredients

  • 1.25 cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup unsalted butter
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 350°F. In a bowl, whisk together 1.25 cups flour, 0.5 cup cocoa, and a pinch of salt.

  2. 2

    In another bowl, cream 0.5 cup softened butter with 0.75 cup sugar until light, about 2 minutes. Beat in 1 egg and 1 tsp vanilla.

  3. 3

    Stir dry ingredients into wet until a stiff dough forms. Roll into 1-inch balls and place on a baking sheet, flattening slightly.

  4. 4

    Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are set and tops look dry. Cool completely on a wire rack.

  5. 5

    For filling, beat 0.25 cup softened butter with 1 cup powdered sugar and 1 tsp vanilla until fluffy. Sandwich between two cookies.
