Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup packed light brown sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 2.75 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.75 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoon salt

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).

Step 2

Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 3

In another bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.

Step 4

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until fully combined. The dough will be soft but not sticky.

Step 5

Divide the dough into two sections, flatten each into a disk, and wrap in plastic wrap. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or until firm.

Step 6

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 7

On a lightly floured surface, roll out one dough disk to about 1/4-inch thickness. Use cookie cutters to cut out your desired shapes.

Step 8

Transfer the cookies to the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 1 inch of space between each cookie.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers are still soft.

Step 10

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Repeat the rolling and baking process with the remaining dough.

Step 12

Decorate the cooled cookies as desired with icing, sprinkles, or leave them plain.
