for 1 minute. Remove and stir. Microwave for another minute, remove and stir. Continue microwaving and stirring in 20 second increments until chocolate is completely melted. 3. Add 1 cup of sugar and mix. 4. Mix in 1 egg and 1 tsp of vanilla. 5. In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking soda and salt and mix together. 6. Add the flour mixture to the chocolate mixture, about 1/2 cup at a time until everything is well combined. 7. Cover bowl with saran wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour. 8. Heat oven to 375'F. 9. Place dough between two sheets of waxed paper (this makes it easier to roll out). 10. Roll with a rolling pin and cut out out with cookie cutters or a drinking glass (a shot glass actually makes a really good size for these cookies -- cookie cutting is the only thing we seem to use them for *laugh*). 11. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet. 12. Bake 8-10 minutes. 13. While baking, tidy up your work area. 14. Remove from cookie sheets and let cool. |
