Recipe type: Cookies
Makes: 16 medium-sized cookies
Ingredients
• Flour, 1 cup or 130 grams
• Cocoa Powder, 3 tablespoons
• Baking Powder, 1 teaspoon
• Salt, ⅓ teaspoon
• Butter, 100 grams
• Powdered Sugar, 100 grams
• Vanilla Essence, 1 teaspoon
• Red Food Color (Liquid= 1+1/2 tablespoon; Gel= a few drops)
• Milk, 2 tablespoons
• Chocolate Chips, ½ cup
Method
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius for about 10 minutes. Line a baking tray with parchment or butter paper and set aside.
In a bowl, whisk butter and sugar together for about a few minutes until they're properly combined. Add in the vanilla essence and mix again.
In a small bowl, mix milk and red food colour together and mix them with the butter sugar mix.
Now sift in all the dry ingredients, flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt into this bowl and mix. Get the dough together with the help of a spatula. If the dough seems dry add in a tablespoon or two of milk. Add in the chocolate chips.
The dough should look something like this. Neither too wet nor too dry.
Now take a tablespoon of dough per cookie, make a ball and flatten it slightly. You should have about 16 cookies in the end. Line the cookie dough balls on the baking tray about 1 inch away from each other. These will spread but not too much.
Bake the cookies for 10 minutes at 180 degrees Celsius. The cookies will look really soft when you take them out, do not lift them right away. Let the cookies cool down for atleast 10 minutes before you transfer them to a baking tray.
If your oven is small, you can bake these in batches too.
