Ingredients
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa
- 1/4 cup margarine, softened
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 4 oz unsweetened applesauce
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp table salt
- 2 Tbsp powdered sugar
Directions
- Preheat oven to 375ºF. Coat two nonstick cookie sheets with cooking
spray.
- Place cocoa, margarine and sugar in a medium bowl; beat with an electric
mixer. Add applesauce and vanilla; beat to blend. Stir together flour,
baking powder and salt. Stir flour mixture into cocoa batter by hand.
- Shape batter into 48 marble-sized balls. Arrange balls 1 inch apart on
cookie sheets. Bake until set, about 8 minutes. Remove from oven and allow
cookies to stand for 1 minute. Remove to wire rack and cool; sprinkle with
powdered sugar. (To maintain their freshness, pack extras in freezer-safe
containers or plastic bags.) Yields 1 cookie per serving.
