TRIPLE
CHOCOLATE COOKIE BALLS@Sherry Watton
Preheat Oven to 350
½ cup Butter(softened)
½ cup Brown Sugar and ½ cup White Sugar
½ cup of Cocoa
2 eggs
2 cups of Flour(just the regular All-Purpose Flour)
2tsp Baking Powder
½ cup of Mini Chocolate Chips(I like Semi Sweet! I use Mini Chips, for
little kids, you get more chips in a bite)
Cream the Butter and the Sugars,
once well blended, add the Cocoa, cream again, then add the eggs and cream again…..NICE
AND CREAMY!!!
In another bowl have the flour
and B. Powder mixed together. Add the dry ingredients to the wet. When its
almost thoroughly mixed, I add the Chocolate Chips. Mix it all, it will get
hard to mix after awhile, all thick and NICE!! Then I make balls…grab some and
roll it in your hands(to stop the sticking to your fingers(if it happens at
all) I dust my fingers with Cocoa
Powder). I make 30 Balls…(TimBit size)but
if YOU want BIGGER balls…you want bigger Balls…just remember to adjust
your time for BAKING. I have adjusted my baking time to 8 minutes…I still want
them soft, like brownie consistency …..then let them cool. If you have a WIRE
RACK, great, if not its OK! Wire racks will allow the melted chocolate to drip
through.
CHOCOLATE COATING: In the microwave(cause I have that button to
melt chocolate) 1 cup of Mini Chocolate Chips(in a Ziploc Bag), then add 1tbsp
of Veg. Oil, for glossiness…smush it all together, so its well incorporated.
OR: Melt the chocolate chips & oil in a
small pot, just on low heat, stir occasionally so it doesn’t burn!!
NOW, snip the tip of the Ziploc
Bag and drizzle/zig zag over the Balls!! OR, if using a pot to melt the
chocolate, use a spoon and drizzle the chocolate over the cookies…..then after
add some sprinkles or whatever you have…or nothing at all!! Mostly I do the
sprinkles for the kids. Put in the
FRIDGE to HARDEN for an hour….roughly!! ENJOY!
