Mexican Coconut Hot Chocolate Cookies Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Beat butter, white sugar, brown sugar, eggs, instant coffee, and vanilla extract together in a large bowl using an electric mixer until fluffy.
• Combine flour, cocoa powder, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, salt, baking powder, cream of tartar, and chili powder in a separate bowl. Stir flour mixture into the butter mixture slowly until blended. Fold in coconut and chocolate chips.
• Drop batter by teaspoonfuls onto ungreased baking sheets.
• Bake in the preheated oven until set, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool slightly on the baking sheet before transferring to a rack to cool completely, about 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Mix flour, cocoa, and baking soda until well combined. Set aside.
• Mix sugars by hand until all lumps are gone. Set aside.
• In a mixer or with a hand mixer, whip butter until creamy.
• Add sugar mixture, cinnamon, peppers, and vanilla to butter, and mix on high for one minute.
• Add egg white and mix until smooth.
• On low, add flour mixture until just combined. Do not over mix.
• Turn dough onto a sheet of waxed paper. Gently form a log about 10 inches long, roll in waxed paper, and chill in the fridge until needed (or at least 45 minutes).
• Place oven racks in upper and lower third of the oven. Preheat oven to 350.
• Line a baking sheet with waxed paper.
• Slice cookies into 1/4 inch thick rounds with a sharp knife.
• Place on cookie sheet about an inch apart.
• Place cookies on lower rack and let them cook for 5 minutes.
• Move cookies to the top rack and turn the pan so that cookies that were facing the front are now facing the back. Cook another 5-6 minutes.
• Remove from the oven and let cool on a cookie rack.
• Once the cookies cool, top them with a thin layer of duche de leche and sprinkle with sliced or slivered almonds.

Steps:

• Combine the flour, cocoa, soda, and salt in a medium bowl. Mix thoroughly with a whisk. Set aside. Combine the sugars in a small bowl and mix well with fingers pressing out any lumps. (Process in a food processor if lumps are stubborn).
• In a medium mixing bowl, beat butter and margarine until creamy. Add sugar mixture, cinnamon, peppers, and vanilla. Beat on high speed for about one minute. Beat in egg white. Stop the mixer. Add the flour mixture. Beat on low speed just until incorporated. Gather the dough together with your hands and form it into a neat 9 to 10-inch log. Wrap in waxed paper. Fold or twist ends of paper without pinching or flatting the log. Chill at least 45 minutes, or until needed.
• Place oven racks in the upper and lower third of the oven preheat to 350 degrees. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
• Use a sharp knife to slice rounds of chilled dough a scant 1/4-inch thick. Place 1-inch apart on prepared baking sheets. Bake 12 to 14 minutes. Rotate baking sheets from top to bottom and front to back about halfway through. Cookies will puff and crackle on top, and then begin to settle down slightly when done. Use a metal spatula to transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool. Allow cookies to cool completely before storing or stacking. Store in an airtight container up to two weeks, or freeze up to 2 months.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Beat 1 1/2 cups sugar, butter, vanilla extract, and salt together in a bowl until fluffy. Beat in eggs; add cream of tartar and baking soda. Beat in cocoa powder, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, and cayenne powder. Beat in flour. Stir chocolate chips into the dough.
• Mix remaining 1/4 cup sugar and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon together in a bowl.
• Roll heaping tablespoons of dough into balls. Roll balls in the sugar-cinnamon mixture and place on the prepared baking sheets.
• Bake in the preheated oven until centers are set and edges crack slightly, about 10 minutes. Cool on baking sheets for 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F Cookie sheets with parchment paper.
• In a large bowl, beat together the butter and sugar.
• Slowly add the syrup until mixed and then add applesauce until mixed and fluffy.
• Mix dry ingredients in a separate bowl. Slowly add the mixture to the wet ingredients until combined.
• Drop onto sheets, leaving 2-3 inches between each cookie.
• Bake for 12 minutes, they should look cooked but slightly shiny.
• Remove to wire racks and cool.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees, with racks in upper and lower thirds. In a medium bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat butter and 1 1/2 cups sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Scrape down side of bowl. Add eggs and beat to combine. With mixer on low, gradually add flour mixture and beat until combined.
• In a small bowl, combine remaining 1/4 cup sugar, cinnamon, and chile powder (if using). Using heaping tablespoons, form balls of dough and roll in cinnamon-sugar mixture. Place, about 3 inches apart, on two parchment-lined baking sheets. Bake until cookies are set in center and begin to crack, about 10 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through. Let cookies cool on sheets on wire racks 5 minutes, then transfer cookies to racks to cool completely. (Store in an airtight container, up to 1 week.)
