Rolling the dough in turbinado sugar gives the cookies a sugary edge. Turbinado sugar is a coarse, blond-colored sugar with a delicate molasses flavor; look for it in your grocery's baking section. Ingredients:
3/4 cup all-purpose flour |
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa |
1/4 teaspoon baking soda |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
4 tablespoons stick margarine, softened |
2/3 cup granulated sugar |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 large egg white |
2 tablespoons turbinado sugar |
cooking spray |
Directions:
1. Combine first 4 ingredients in a bowl; set aside. Beat margarine at medium speed of a mixer until light and fluffy. Gradually add granulated sugar, beating at medium speed of a mixer until well-blended. Add vanilla and egg white, and beat well. Add flour mixture, and stir until well-blended. Turn dough out onto wax paper; shape into a 6-inch log. Wrap log in wax paper; freeze 3 hours or until very firm.
2. Preheat oven to 350°.
3. Roll log in turbinado sugar. Cut log into 24 (1/4-inch) slices; place 1 inch apart on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350° for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from pan; cool on wire racks.
4. Chocolate-Peppermint Variation: Substitute 1 teaspoon of peppermint extract for the vanilla extract.
