Day 6 of my 12 days of cookies is a special one since it’s part of Rodelle’s “Cookies with Rodelle!” They’re featuring lots of other cookie recipes this month, so make sure to check them out with the badge/link at the end of this post. These chocolate sno-cap cookies are made with Rodelle’s vanilla extract (as with all of the recipes on my blog) and their baking cocoa powder.
Instead of the usual chocolate chips, I found a bag of sno-caps in the baking aisle and decided to go with those. They’re basically chocolate chips with white nonpareils on the bottom, hence the name “sno-caps.” They look like snowy mountain tops!
Although, to be honest, they all kind of meshed into the dough and it looks like I just added some sprinkles into the batter.
These cookies are rich and chewy, with a whole lot of chocolate.
As I was photographing these photos, I noticed a hand jumped into my frame and a cookie was stolen. Ellie is so quick and quiet that I didn’t even hear her come up behind me!
She was so happy that she successfully stole a cookie off of my photography plate.
After she took a bite, she realized that they were still warm out of the oven and yelled, “HOT!” Ah, kids. Maybe one day she’ll learn.
