Equipment
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup melted butter
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil canola or coconut oil can be used too
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
- 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- rainbow chip sprinkles
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine melted butter, vegetable oil, granulated sugar, brown sugar, an egg and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth.
- Sprinkle in the flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder. Fold together until there’s no visible flour remaining.
- Portion the dough into 2-inch sized balls (I got 12 cookies out of this). Then transfer them onto your prepared baking sheets and bake for 10-12 minutes.
- While the cookies cool on the baking sheets, pour heavy cream into a microwave safe bowl and microwave for about 40 seconds (just make sure it's hot).
- Add the chocolate chips to a separate small mixing bowl and pour the hot heavy cream overtop. Let this sit for 3-5 minutes. Stir the mixture until the chocolate is melted and has smoothly incorporated into the heavy cream. You’ve made ganache!
- Dip the surface of each cooled cookie into the bowl of ganache and return to the baking trays. Add rainbow chip sprinkles to each cookie while the ganache is still wet. Let the ganache set, then enjoy!
