Ingredients:

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

3/4 cup Dutch process cocoa powder

1 large egg

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1 cup + 2 Tablespoons granulated white sugar

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 Tablespoon water

Equipment:

whisk

bowl

plastic wrap

baking sheet

oven

Cooking instruction summary:

1. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa, salt and baking powder. In a separate, larger bowl, beat the butter until light and fluffy. Add sugar and continue beating until it's well incorporated. Then add egg, water, and vanilla and beat for at least 2 minutes, until the mixture has lightened both in color and texture. Gently mix in the dry ingredients.2. Using clean hands, shape the dough into a flattened disk. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 3 to 4 hours, or overnight. This dough is very soft, so it's imperative that it's been chilled before you roll it out.3. Preheat oven to 325°F. Lightly grease (or line with parchment or silpats) two or three baking sheets.4. On a clean, heavily floured work surface, roll the dough to a 1/8-inch thickness, and use a round cutter to cut it into 2 1/4-inch circles. Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheets. They won't expand a great deal, so you don't need a lot of space between them.5. Bake the cookies for 17 to 18 minutes. (Watch carefully; it's difficult to tell when they're done, as they're so dark you can't see if they're brown, but when you start to smell them they're probably done. If you smell even a whiff of burning, remove them from the oven immediately.) Transfer the cookies to a rack and cool them completely.

Food Joke

Juan was driving down a country lane in his pickup when suddenly a chicken darted into the road in front of him. He slammed on his brakes, but realized that the chicken wasspeeding off down the road at about 30 miles an hour. Intrigued, he tried to follow the bird with his truck, but he couldn`t catch up to the accelerating chicken. Seeing itturn into a small farm, Juan followed it. To his astonishment, he realized that the chicken had three legs. Looking around the small farm, he noticed that ALL of thechickens had three legs.The farmer came out of his house, and Juan said, "Three-legged chickens? That`s astonishing!"The farmer replied, "Yep. I bred `em that way because I love drumsticks."Juan was curious. "How does a three-legged chicken taste?"The farmer smiled. "Dunno. Haven`t been able to catch one yet."
