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

3/4 cup unsalted butter

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

John invited his mother over for dinner. During the meal, his mother couldn't help noticing how attractive and shapely the housekeeper was. Over the course of the evening, she started to wonder if there was more between John and the housekeeper than met the eye. Reading his mom's thoughts, John volunteered, "I know what you must be thinking, but I assure you, my relationship with my housekeeper is purely professional." About a week later, the housekeeper came to John and said, "Ever since your mother came to dinner, I've been unable to find the beautiful silver gravy ladle. You don't suppose she took it, do you?" John said, "Well, I doubt it, but I'll write her a letter just to be sure." So he sat down and wrote: "Dear Mother, I'm not saying you 'did' take a gravy ladle from my house, and I'm not saying you 'did not' take a gravy ladle. But the fact remains that one has been missing ever since you were here for dinner." Several days later, John received a letter from his mother which said "Dear Son, I'm not saying that you 'do' sleep with your housekeeper, and I'm not saying that you 'do not' sleep with your housekeeper. But the fact remains that if she were sleeping in her own bed, she would have found the gravy ladle by now. Love, Mom"
