Good Housekeeping magazine, December 2001, “Cookies from Christmas Past” p 157
You will need for the cookies:
2 cups all-purpose flour
½ cup unsweetened cocoa
1 ½ tsp baking powder
1 tsp ground cinnamon
¼ tsp ground cloves
¼ tsp salt
¾ cup sugar
½ cup (1 stick) butter, softened
1 large egg
½ cup whole milk
For the glaze:
3 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa
1 ¼ cups confectioners’ sugar
White candy decors for garnish
Prepare cookies: Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In medium bowl, combine flour, cocoa, baking powder, cinnamon, cloves, and salt.
In large bowl, with mixer at low speed, beat sugar with butter until blended, occasionally scraping bowl with rubber spatula. Increase speed to high; beat until light and creamy.
At low speed, beat in egg.
Alternately beat in flour mixture and milk, beginning and ending with flour mixture, just until combined, occasionally scraping bowl.
With cocoa-dusted hands, shape dough by level tablespoons into 1-inch balls. Place balls 2 inches apart on ungreased large cookie sheet.
Bake cookies 7 to 9 minutes or until puffed. (They will look dry and slightly cracked.) Transfer cookies to wire rack to cool. Repeat with remaining dough.
When cookies are cool, prepare Chocolate Glaze: In medium bowl, with wire whisk or fork, gradually mix cocoa with ¼ cup boiling water until smooth. Gradually stir in confectioners’ sugar and blend well.
Dip top of each cookie into glaze. Place cookies on wire rack set over waxed paper to catch any drips. Immediately sprinkle cookies with decors.
Allow glaze to set, about 20 minutes. Store with waxed paper between layers.
