  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar

How To Make chocolate snickerdoodles

  • Step 1
    Put 5g (or a teaspoon) of the butter in a small microwavable bowl or cup with the chocolate.
  • Step 2
    Beat remaining butter until it is creamy (soften in the microwave for 20 seconds if its hard). Add sugar slowly & cream together (about 3 minutes).
  • Step 3
    Microwave the chocolate until soft or melted (about a minute) then beat into the butter sugar mix, followed by the egg & vanilla essence.
  • Step 4
    Sift in flour, cocoa, salt, baking soda & cream of tartar & beat to combine.
  • Step 5
    In a small bowl or cup, combine the extra sugar & cinnamon.
  • Step 6
    Use a 1 Tablespoon measure to scoop out dough & roll into balls then roll them in the sugar/cinnamon mix to thoroughly coat. Place balls on a lined baking sheet, 2" apart to allow for spreading. Do not flatten.
  • Step 7
    Bake at 180C for 8-10 minutes. Leave to cool on the tray & they will firm up.
