Maple Liqueur Chocolate Drops
Martha ain't got nothin' on me. She may have had something when you created the Chocolate Charm Cookie, but it wasn't until I added Maple Liqueur to it that it really became a cookie. So yes, I nod and give credit to Martha for the original, but my recipe is better. :-)
These cookies are a delicious, bite-sized treat that are sure to have you coming back for more!
Ingredients:
-1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
-2 cups flour
-2 sticks butter
-2 dashes salt
-3/4 cup sugar
-2 tsp Maple Liqueur (or alcohol of your choice)
Directions:
-Set oven to 325
-Line baking sheets with parchment paper
-In one bowl, add cocoa powder, flour, salt
-In another bowl, melt butter, add in sugar, Maple Liqueur
-Pour wet mixture over dry mixture
-Place combined mixture in an airtight container
-Chill for a couple of hours (I chilled it over night)
-Roll into 1 inch balls
-Place on baking sheets (3-4 dozen per sheet)
-Bake for 20 minutes (rotate once) until tops are tough
Makes about 100 cookies (give or take a few)
Nutrition: 28-33 calories per cookie (depending on size)
These cookies are a ton of fun, but can be time consuming to prepare. The rolling part will take a while unless you have friends to help you (thanks, Wendy!)!
