Ingredients

Cookies

1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 tsp Cow Lick seasoning
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Additional Chocolate Glaze

2 8-oz bars of semi sweet baking chocolate (I use Ghirardelli)
1/3 cup heavy whipping cream
1/2 tsp Cow Lick seasoning (plus more to taste depending on how spicy you like your chocolate)
A few teaspoons of powder sugar (to even out the sweetness)

Directions

Sift together dry ingredients.
Put butter and granulated sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment; mix on medium speed until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
Mix in egg and vanilla. Reduce speed.
Add flour mixture.
Mix until just combined. Dough will become stiff.
Wrap mixture in Saran wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour to overnight.
When ready to cook, take mixture out of fridge and allow to come to room temperature.
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper.
Roll into log and slice, or roll dough out to 1/4 inch thick and cut out shapes.
Bake for about 10 minutes, or until sides are firm and center is slightly resistant.
