Categories: Cookies, Snacks, Chocolate, Nuts
Yield: 10 servings

MMMMM--------------------------COOKIES-------------------------------
5 tb Butter; softened
1 c (packed) brown sugar
1 tb Light corn syrup
3 oz Bittersweet chocolate;
- melted
1 lg Egg; room temp
1 ts Vanilla extract
1 1/3 c A-P flour
3/4 ts Baking powder
2 tb Baking cocoa
1/2 ts Salt
1/2 c Buttermilk
1/2 c Chopped pecans

MMMMM--------------------------FROSTING-------------------------------
1 1/2 c Confectioners' sugar
1/4 c Baking cocoa
1 tb Butter; softened
3 tb Boiling water

Set oven @ 350ºF/175ºC.

Line two 15" X 10" X 1" baking sheets with parchment
paper; set aside.

In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle
attachment, cream together butter, brown sugar and corn
syrup until fluffy and lighter in color, about 5
minutes. Beat in melted chocolate, vanilla extract and
egg until fully blended.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, salt and
baking powder. Gradually alternate adding flour mixture
and buttermilk to the wet ingredients; mix until the
flour disappears and no dry clumps remain. Gently fold
in pecans; cover and chill the dough for 30 minutes.

Spoon dough onto prepared baking sheets in 2-1/2
tablespoon scoopfuls, leaving 2 in. between cookies.
Bake 11-12 minutes or until the center of the cookies
appear set and edges are firm. Remove promptly; let cool
5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool
completely.

Mix confectioners' sugar and cocoa powder in a large
bowl. Add butter and 2 tablespoons boiling water; whisk
until smooth. If frosting is too thick, add 1 additional
tablespoon boiling water; frosting should be the
consistency of a thick glaze that’s spreadable with a
knife.

Once cookies are cool, spread a generous layer of
frosting onto each cookie. Serve.
