Cream in a large bowl:
1 c. softened butter
1/2 c. icing sugar.
Blend in:
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla
1oz. square of unsweetened chocolate, melted
At low speed, blend in:
2 1/4 c. flour
1/4. tsp. salt
Add, after flour is incorporated:
1 c. semi-sweet chocolate chips. (I use mini chips)
Shape into 1 inch balls. Mixture will be a bit crumbly. Press tightly and the ball will form enough to roll in your hands. Place on a parchment lined cookie sheet.
Bake at 350F for 10 minutes and cool.
Combine in a small bowl:
1/4 c. icing sugar
2 tbsp cocoa
Roll cooled cookie in this mixture and place in small paper cups. Store in an airtight container. This cookie freezes well!
