- 4 oz granulated sugar
- 2 oz brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 egg
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 4 oz dark cocoa powder
- 8 oz all purpose flour
- heavy cream, as needed to bring the dough together, about 1/2 cup
Frosting and Assembly
ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup plus 2 tbsp heavy cream
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup rainbow coated mini chocolate chips
Make the Cookies
Method
Step 1
In a large bowl add the softened butter and sugars. Cream together until light and fluffy.
Step 2
Add the vanilla extract, and egg. Mix to combine.
Step 3
Add the salt, cocoa powder, and flour to the wet mixture and mix to form a dough.
Step 4
Add heavy cream as needed to bring the dough together.
Step 5
Line 2 sheet trays with parchment paper. Using a standard sized ice cream scoop, scoop the dough out. Spread the scoops between the two trays.
Step 6
Use a measuring cup (I used 1/3 cup) to flatten the dough scoops. If your measuring cup is sticking to the dough, grease it with a little bit of neutral oil to prevent sticking.
Step 7
Freeze the cookies for 20 minutes to set.
Step 8
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Bake the chilled cookies for 16-18 minutes or until the edges begin to crisp up.
Step 9
When the cookies come out of the oven, let them cool completely.
Frosting and Assembly
Step 1
Pour the chocolate chips into a medium bowl.
Step 2
Heat up the cream either on the stove (to a simmer) or in the microwave in 30 second increments.
Step 3
Pour the hot cream over the chocolate chips to cover them and let sit for 1 minute.
Step 4
Whisk to combine and form a smooth ganache. Stir in the butter.
Step 5
Chill for 10-15 minutes if necessary to reach a spreadable frosting consistency.
Step 6
Either spoon or pipe a swirl of the frosting onto each of the cooled cookies. Use a spoon to make a swoop in the frosting for decoration.
Step 7
Top with the rainbow coated mini chocolate chips.
Step 8
You can store them at room temperature for up to 24 hours. Beyond that, store in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Enjoy!
