Recipe type: Dessert
Serves: 36 cookies
Ingredients
  • 1 stick (8 tablespoons) butter, room temperature
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup cane sugar
  • ⅓ cup light brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¾ teaspoon peppermint extract (optional)
  • ¼ cup full fat sour cream
  • ½ cup dutch processed cocoa powder
  • 1¼ cup Pamela's brand gluten free all-purpose flour
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ⅔ cup powdered sugar
Directions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, cream together butter, egg, sugar, and brown sugar until just incorporated. Add vanilla, peppermint extract, and sour cream and mix until combined. Add cocoa powder and mix on low, scraping down the sides, until evenly distributed. Add flour, baking soda, and salt and mix until combined. Beat for an additional minute, scraping down the sides as needed.
  2. Cover dough and chill in fridge for at least 1-2 hours or until dough is firm.
  3. Once ready to bake cookies, preheat oven to 350 degrees and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  4. Fill a breakfast sized cereal bowl with powdered sugar. Shape walnut sized balls of dough, one at a time, and roll them in the powdered sugar until completely covered. Place cookies 2" apart on cookie sheet. Sprinkle with extra powdered sugar if needed. Bake cookies, one pan at a time, at 350 degrees for 12-14 minutes until edges are set.
  5. Remove cookies from the oven and allow to completely cool on baking sheet before transferring to cooling racks. Repeat with remaining cookie dough, making sure to keep leftover dough in fridge until ready to roll and bake.
  6. Store leftover cookies in an airtight container for up to 3 days at room temperature, 1 week in the fridge, or up to 3 months in the freezer.
