Instructions

For the cookies

  1. Mix the flour, salt, baking powder, sugar and cacao using a whisk.
  2. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix with a spatula.
  3. Take the mixx to the fridge for an hour so it becomes more solid.
  4. Make small balls between your hands.

For the crinkle effect

  1. Pass the dough balls through the icing sugar and let it form a thick coat around it. Place them on a tray with baking paper with 4 fingers between each other as they tend to spread out.
  2. Take them to a preheated oven at 180C for 8min.
  3. Espera un par de minutos antes de sacarlas para que no se desarmen.
