Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 1/4 cups (281g) All-Purpose Flour
  • 2 tablespoons (12g) Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/2 cup (113g) Unsalted Butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups (300g) Granulated Sugar
  • 2 Large Eggs
  • 1-2 tablespoons Red Food Coloring (gel food coloring recommended)
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) Buttermilk
  • 1 cup (120g) Powdered Sugar, for rolling

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined.
  • Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight.
  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Roll the chilled dough into 1-inch balls. Then, roll each ball in powdered sugar, making sure it’s completely coated. Place the coated dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops are cracked. The cookies will still be slightly soft in the center, but they will firm up as they cool.
  • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
