Very rich, very thin chocolate lace cookies

36 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
¼ pounds Butter-1 stick
2 Chocolate-unsweetened
Egg-slightly beaten
¼ teaspoon Salt
½ teaspoon Vanilla
½ teaspoon Baking powder
½ cup Flour
1½ cup Sugar

Directions

Melt the butter and chocolate in the top of a double boiler. Combine with egg and rest of ingredients.

Drop by scant teaspoonfuls on greased cookie sheets. The finished cookies will be 3 to 4 inches in diameter so space them accordingly.

Bake in preheated oven of 325~ for about 12 minutes. Watch carefully to prevent burning. When nearly cool, remove from the cookie sheet with spatuala. (I use the metal type.Hint-press under the cookie with pressure against the sheet and they remove easily without crumbling) Place on racks to cool completely.
