,
Unsweetened Cocoa Powder (2 1/2 Tbsp)
,
Baking Soda (1/2 tsp)
, and
Salt (1/4 tsp)
in a large bowl. Stir with a spoon to combine these ingredients.
Step 3
Use a stand mixer or handheld mixer to beat the
Butter (1/2 cup)
high speed until creamy. This should take about 30 seconds to a minute.
Step 4
Pour in
Brown Sugar (1/2 cup)
and
Granulated Sugar (1/4 cup)

, and
Red Food Coloring (2 Tbsp)
. Beat on medium-low speed until all the ingredients are well combined.

Step 7
Add the

. Stir until they are well distributed in the dough.
Step 8
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop heaping tablespoons of the cookie dough onto the baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space in between each cookie.
Step 9
Bake for 10-12 minutes (the longer, the crunchier). Allow to cool completely before adding the frosting.

in a stand mixer or using a hand mixer until it becomes fluffy.
