Chocolate Crinkle Cookies

These are pretty good. I am not a super big chocolate fan, but these are pretty darn good.

1 c. flour

1/2 c. + 2 Tbsp. cocoa powder

1 tsp. baking soda

1/8 tsp. salt

1/2 c. unsalted butter (or salted butter and omit the above salt)

1/2 c. sugar

1/2 c. brown sugar

1 egg, room temperature

1 tsp. vanilla

1 c. mini chocolate chips

For rolling:

3 Tbsp. sugar

1 c. powdered sugar

Whisk flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt together in a bowl and set aside. Beat butter and sugars on medium  until fluffy (about 2 minutes). Beat in egg and vanilla. Slowly mix dry ingredients into wet ingredients; then mix in chips.  Cover dough and refrigerate 2 hours (up to 3 days). Always chill the dough. Remove from fridge and let sit 15 minutes. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Roll dough into 1 1/2 tablespoon-sized balls and roll lightly in sugar; roll generously in powdered sugar. Place 3 inches apart on parchment lined baking sheets. Bake 11-12 minutes. If they don't spread by 9 minutes, remove from oven and bang on the counter and return to the oven. Cool cookies 5 minutes on the pan and then transfer to a cooling rack. This makes about 3 dozen.
