The tickle of Mexican cayenne makes these delectable cookies from Tofino, B.C,'s iconic taco chain, Tacofino, especially addictive.
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup cocoa powder, preferably Fry's
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 to 1 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp cinnamon
1 cup chocolate chips
2 eggs
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup canola oil
3 tbsp grated fresh ginger, or ginger juice
1 tbsp vanilla
1 tsp kosher salt, or granulated sugar
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375F. Lightly spray 2 baking sheets with oil.
Sift flour with cocoa powder, baking soda, cayenne and cinnamon in a large bowl. Stir in chocolate chips.
Whisk eggs in a medium bowl. Whisk in both sugars, oil, ginger juice and vanilla. Stir into flour mixture until combined.
Using a 1/4 cup measure, scoop 6 portions of dough onto each baking sheet. Flatten cookies slightly with the bottom of the measuring cup. Sprinkle dough with salt or sugar.
Bake 1 pan at a time in centre of oven until cookies start to crack, 11 to 13 min. They should still be fudgy in the middle. Cool on racks.
