Ingredients

How to make it

  • In a good sized bowl sift flour, salt, cocoa, cayenne, cinnamon and black pepper.
  • In a different bowl cream your butter until it is a nice pale color. (use food processor/beater).
  • Add sugar slowly and keep beating at a medium speed setting. Scrape clean the sides every once in awhile to get a good mix. Add in vanilla extract and mix that thoroughly. Now add a beaten egg and mix this in thoroughly.
  • Slowly add the dry ingredients until they are well mixed.
  • Flour your work surface and turn the dough. Fold it over a few times but don't work it too much or else it will be too rubbery.
  • Split the dough into two halves and roll into a cylinder shape (dimensions: 9in long and 2in in diameter).
  • Now wrap the cylinders of dough in wax paper and put in the freezer until they are firm (takes about 15 minutes).
  • Preheat your oven to 300F and put your slightly frozen dough on your cutting board.
  • Cut dought into 1/2in thick disc shapes and place on large cookie sheet and bake for 5 minutes to soften. Now take them out and use a pastry spatula to flatten them down a bit. Now bake for another 10 minutes. The cookies are finished when they are just about firm on the edges.
  • Pop them off the sheet onto a cooling tray with a wide spatula.
  • Serve while still warm with vanilla ice cream (or any other flavor).

    I served with a box of Neopolitan ice cream so everyone could choose their own flavor. Myself and several others choose strawberry. It was perfect on a hot summer's night with a cold drink. Mmm! These were definitely a smash hit! You got my 5!
