Yes we are back again for our monthly Tasty Creations! Last month I shared or better still, our good friend shared his amazing recipe for Tradition Polenta with a Sausage Pork Rib Tomato Sauce.

This month we are back in my territory. The ingredient for this month is sugar. I am so happy to be sharing this amazing Chocolate Sugar Cookie, that I got from my amazing Baker Cousin.

If you remember I have already shared a couple of her recipes. Homemade Coconut Cake which really is a Delicious Cake recipe and my Bloody Good Double Chocolate Halloween Cake .

And I have to say, she did it again! These really are a good Cookie Recipe, just ask my youngest daughter who ate almost all of them! Even the Italian asked “where are all the cookies”?

These Dark Chocolate Sugar Cookies are so easy and fast  to make and they bake up in 10 minutes. They spread out a little, but remain soft on the inside. Perfect.

So if are planning on doing some baking this week don’t forget to add these Soft Dark Chocolate to your baking line up. Enjoy!

    These cookies are delicious, and so easy to bake. The flavor is rich and choclatey.
    For sure these cookies will go on my list of Christmas favorites.

    I didn’t like the cookies going in, and they really don’t taste very good. Super grainy, very greasy, and no chocolate flavour comes through at all. Pretty big disappointment.

      Hi Lydia, well I am really sorry you didn’t enjoy them, but I cannot agree that they are greasy, grainy or no chocolate flavour. I have made these 3x in the past 2 weeks and I never had that problem (video). Also a few readers have enjoyed them also. Maybe you added too much butter or not enough flour. thanks

    This recipe sounds really good…I would love to make it. However, how many ounces are in 3 squares of unsweetened chocolate?
