This was actually supposed to start my Christmas cookie baking, but for some reason, I overlooked these. But here they are now! Say pure raw organic cacao powder in your comment to be entered into a drawing for a bag of your own!
2 cups Challenge Butter, softened
1-1/3 cups sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 egg yolks
4 cups Bob's Red Mill all-purpose flour
1/2 cup Pure Raw Organic Cacao Powder amzn.to/1SfZLg2
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup chopped pecans
1 cup dark chocolate chips or semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 tablespoons shortening (do not use butter, margarine, spread or oil), divided
1 cup peanut butter chips or white chocolate chips
Beat Challenge Butter, sugar and vanilla until well blended. Add egg yolks, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Gradually add flour, cocoa and salt, beating until blended. (Batter is very stiff.)
Divide dough in half. Shape each part into 12-inch long log. Roll each in pecans, pressing firmly to have pecans adhere. Wrap each roll separately in plastic wrap. Refrigerate 6 to 8 hours.
Heat oven to 350°F. Using a sharp knife, cut rolls into 3/8-inch slices. Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until set. Cool slightly. Remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Cool completely.
Place chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon shortening shortening in small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave at MEDIUM (50%) 1 minute; stir until melted. Drizzle over tops of cookies. Melt peanut butter chips or white chips with remaining 1 tablespoon shortening; drizzle over chocolate. Let stand until drizzles are set. Makes about 6 dozen cookies.
*FTC Disclosure: I was lucky to be sent a bag of Pure Raw Organic Cacao Powder for this video.
