Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled), plus more for rolling and cutting out dough
- 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 large egg
- Small candies or sprinkles, for decorating (optional)
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa, and salt; set aside.
In a large bowl, with an electric mixer, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy; beat in egg. On low speed, mix in flour mixture. Divide dough in half, and form into 2 disks, each about 3/4 inch thick. Wrap disks in plastic; chill until firm, at least 45 minutes and up to 2 days.
On a lightly floured sheet of waxed paper, using a floured rolling pin, roll dough 1/2 inch thick. (If dough becomes too soft to work with, refrigerate for a few minutes.)
Using 2- to 3-inch Halloween cookie cutters, cut out shapes, dipping cutters in flour as necessary to prevent sticking; place on a baking sheet, spacing them 1 inch apart.
Bake until surface is dry to the touch, 10 to 15 minutes (if decorating, press candies into dough halfway through baking). Cool cookies 1 to 2 minutes on baking sheet; transfer to a rack to cool completely.

One of our favorite recipes ever! A Halloween tradition here, just because they're so easy to make. Use a football cookie cutter for tailgating. We use Hershey's dark cocoa powder when we have it to make 'em even tastier.

these weren't my favorite cookies. You def don't need to cook them any longer than 10 min. and while they do have a chocolate taste, they are lacking sweetness. with some icing they may be salvageable. on a scale of one to 10 i give this one a 5.5
