CHOCOLATE SPICE COOKIES

Steps:

• Cookies: Preheat oven to 375°F. Whisk together flour, cocoa, salt, ground ginger, cinnamon, and cloves. In a large bowl, beat butter with brown sugar, fresh ginger, and baking soda until creamy. Add egg; beat to combine. Reduce speed to low; beat in flour mixture.
• Scoop a scant 1/4 cup of dough (1.75 ounces); roll into a ball. Dust a cookie stamp with flour, tapping out excess. Place dough in center of stamp, then press evenly to cover shape of design. Place, dough-side down, on a parchment-lined baking sheet and press until dough is about 1/4 inch thick.
• Carefully remove (if it sticks, just gather up dough and start over). Repeat with remaining dough, arranging cookies 2 inches apart. Refrigerate 20 minutes; use a 2 3/4-inch round cutter to trim excess. Bake until firm to the touch, 11 to 13 minutes.
• Glaze: Meanwhile, whisk together confectioners' sugar, Cointreau, butter, and salt; glaze should have the consistency of honey. (If too thick, whisk in more Cointreau.) Let cookies cool on sheets on a wire rack 8 minutes, then brush with glaze. Let cool completely. Cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 3 days.

SPICED MOCHA CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350ºF.
• Lightly grease cookie sheet (I like to use multiples, no waiting for cool time) In a medium bowl, combine flour, cocoa powder, cinnamon, baking soda and salt.
• In a large bowl, cream butter, brown sugar and white sugar together until light and fluffy (this may take several minutes, depending on the strength of your mixer).
• Beat in eggs one at a time, mixing well.
• Mix in extracts.
• Combine instant coffee and water in a small bowl and stir until fully dissolved.
• Mix coffee into butter/sugar mixture.
• Gradually mix flour mixture into butter mixture.
• Set aside 1/2 cup of morsels (for sprinkling and making the cookies pretty), and stir remaining morsels into dough.
• Drop by cookie scoop (or by rounded teaspoonfuls) onto prepared pans.
• For visual effect, sprinkle a few of the reserved morsels onto each cookie.
• Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until edges look done but centers appear slightly underbaked (I find that after the first batch, consecutive batches may take as little as 6 minutes to bake- I watch them carefully to prevent overbaking).
• Allow to cool on pan for 5 minutes, then transfer cookies to a wire rack to finish cooling (be sure to eat at least one cookie while still warm!).
