1 1/3 cups + 1 Tbsp. (175g) All-purpose flour
3 tablespoons (22g) Cocoa powder
1/4 cup (32g) Cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon Salt

Refrigerate for 20-30 minutes.
Bake, one pan at a time, for about 13-15 minutes. Allow to cool completely before storing or serving.
Notes:
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up 3-4 days.
I followed the directions completely and piped them out using a large open star shape tip. They looked good however during baking in the oven they melted together loosing the shape. They looked like a round blob. So disappointed as it was not easy to pipe out correctly. It took all my strength to get the dough through the tip. They taste good but looked disappointing to say the least. Ny the I'm a bakers daughter and have baked all my life.
I agree with the other comments, the recipe is missing something because after mixing and shaping the cookies they lost the shape in the oven and. DO look like flat diarrhea cookies… I think is the corn starch . Regardless it was a terrible 😞 outcome.
I used baking powder instead of cornstarch and it kept its shape pretty well!
I also used a bit more butter, so it wasn't as dry.
The piping went horrible because it was my first time using one but they tasted amazing!.

ReplyPerhaps it's best to not tie one's identity to what profession our family members have. We are responsible for the outcome of our own recipe.
