Author: Laura Bais
These Texas Sheet Cake Cookies are super chocolaty, crispy, and moist! I sprinkled them with some almond flakes for additional crunch. They are easy and quick dessert to make, completely beginner-friendly! I love Double Chocolate Cookies with a hot glass of milk! YUM!

Ingredients
 
 

Cookie Dough

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • cup cocoa powder
  • cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • a pinch salt
  • ½ cup butter
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ cup chocolate chips

Chocolate Sauce

  • ½ cup butter
  • 3 tbsp milk
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 2 cup powdered sugar

For the Topping

  • cup almond flakes

Instructions
 

Making the Cookie Dough

  • In a bowl, combine dry ingredients: all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, granulated sugar, and salt.
  • Mix room-temperature butter until pale and fluffy. Ad a room-temperature egg and vanilla extract. Mix again.
  • Add dry ingredients and slightly combine. Pour in the melted chocolate and combine everything. Do it quickly. You will need about 30 seconds of mixing at medium speed. The dough should be glossy, and soft, but not sticky.

Baking the Cookies

  • Shape golf-sized balls (1/4 cup or an ice cream scoop). Arrange them on a parchment paper-covered baking sheet with a few inches of space between them.
  • Heat the oven at 350 °F (180 °C) or 320 °F (160 °C) for the one with a fan. Bake the cookies between 8-12 minutes, depending on how gooey you want them to be.
  • Remove them from the oven and leave them to cool to room temperature. They will be soft, but harden as they chill.

Making the Sauce

  • Heat butter, milk, and cocoa powder over medium heat to combine. When you remove it from the stove, add powdered sugar and mix until smooth.

Assembling the Cookies

  • Arrange the cookies on the cooling rack, cover them in chocolate sauce, and sprinkle with almond flakes.
  • Leave them for about half an hour for the sauce to stiffen.
