Cook Time: 12 minutes
Total Time: 27 minutes
Yield: 24 cookies
Ingredients:
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 3 tbsp Cocoa Powder
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ cup (1 stick) butter, softened
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 1 ½ tbsp red gel food coloring
- 2 tbsp milk
- 1 cup White Blossoms, chopped
- 1 cup Milk Chocolate Blossoms, chopped
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 350º F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, use electric mixer to cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 4 to 5 minutes. Add egg and mix again, about 1 minute. Add red food coloring and vanilla extract and mix until all ingredients are well combined.
- In a small bowl, whisk together flour, Cocoa Powder, baking soda, and salt. Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix on low speed until fully incorporated, about 2 minutes. Add milk and mix for 1 more minute on low speed. Fold in chopped Chocolate Blossoms, reserving a quarter cup of each for the next step.
- Use a cookie scoop to form 1 inch dough balls and place them 3 inches apart on a lined baking sheet. Lightly press remaining chopped Chocolate Blossoms into each ball of dough.
- Bake for 12 minutes or until centers of cookies look puffy. Allow to rest on the baking sheet for at least 5 minutes before moving to a cooling rack.
