These delightful chocolate morsels start out crisp and soften upon

standing.

 

 

Ingredients

 

 

 

1/3 cup(s) unsweetened cocoa

1/4 cup(s) margarine, softened

3/4 cup(s) sugar

4 oz unsweetened applesauce

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 1/2 cup(s) all-purpose flour

1 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp table salt

2 tbsp powdered sugar

 

 

 

Instructions

 

 

 

Preheat oven to 375ºF. Coat two nonstick cookie sheets with cooking

spray.

 

 

Place cocoa, margarine and sugar in a medium bowl; beat with an

electric mixer. Add applesauce and vanilla; beat to blend. Stir

together flour, baking powder and salt. Stir flour mixture into cocoa

batter by hand.

 

 

Shape batter into 48 marble-sized balls. Arrange balls 1 inch apart

on cookie sheets. Bake until set, about 8 minutes. Remove from oven

and allow cookies to stand for 1 minute. Remove to wire rack and

cool; sprinkle with powdered sugar. (To maintain their freshness,

pack extras in freezer-safe containers or plastic bags.) Yields 1

cookie per serving.
