Time 25m

Yield 30 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 cup butter
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg
2 egg yolks
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup powdered sugar, sifted
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tablespoon butter, melted
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
colored crystal sugar or candy sprinkles, as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Beat butter with an electric mixer on medium to high speed for 30 seconds. Add granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt; beat until combined. Beat in egg, egg yolks, and vanilla until combined. Beat in flour (you may need to hand mix some of it).
  • Transfer 3/4 cup of the dough to a small bowl. Add powdered sugar, cocoa powder, and melted butter. Beat well. Shape into 1-inch balls.
  • Beat almond extract into remaining dough. Mold about 1 tablespoons of almond dough around each cocoa ball. Roll gently to make smooth, round ball. Roll each ball in colored sugar or candy sprinkles. Place balls two inches apart on greased cookie sheet.
  • Bake at 375 for 10-11 minutes or until bottoms are browned. Cool cookies on a pan for 1 minute then transfer to a wire rack. Cool completely.
