Very rich, very thin chocolate lace cookies
36 servings
Ingredients
| Quantity | Ingredient | |
|---|---|---|
| ¼ | pounds | Butter-1 stick |
| 2 | Chocolate-unsweetened | |
| Egg-slightly beaten | ||
| ¼ | teaspoon | Salt |
| ½ | teaspoon | Vanilla |
| ½ | teaspoon | Baking powder |
| ½ | cup | Flour |
| 1½ | cup | Sugar |
Directions
Melt the butter and chocolate in the top of a double boiler. Combine with egg and rest of ingredients.
Drop by scant teaspoonfuls on greased cookie sheets. The finished cookies will be 3 to 4 inches in diameter so space them accordingly.
Bake in preheated oven of 325~ for about 12 minutes. Watch carefully to prevent burning. When nearly cool, remove from the cookie sheet with spatuala. (I use the metal type.Hint-press under the cookie with pressure against the sheet and they remove easily without crumbling) Place on racks to cool completely.
