Yield: 12 - 14 cookies

Ingredients

• 80g plain flour
• 25g cocoa powder
• ½ teaspoon baking powder
• 90g caster sugar
• 25g unsalted butter, cubed
• 1 large egg
• ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
• 50g icing sugar, to coat

Instructions

1. Line a baking tray with parchment paper, and set aside.
2. In a medium bowl, mix the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and caster sugar together. Using your fingertips, or a food processor, rub in the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture forms a sandy consistency with no large lumps of butter. Add in the egg, and vanilla extract, and mix until a dough forms.
3. Wrap the dough in clingfilm and chill in the fridge for about 30 minutes.
4. Preheat the oven to 180C/350F. In a small bowl, add the icing sugar. Make walnut-sized balls of the dough, about 1½" in diameter, and roll in the icing sugar until fully coated.
5. Place the balls onto the prepared baking tray and bake for 10 - 12 minutes. Allow the cookies to cool on the pan for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
