What You Need

1 cup (250 ml) sugar
1 cup (250 ml) softened butter
1 egg
1/2 cup (125 ml) melted semisweet chocolate
1 tsp (5 ml) vanilla extract
2 1/2 cup (625 ml) all-purpose flour

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 °F (180 °C).

In large bowl, beat together sugar, butter, egg, melted chocolate and vanilla until smooth. Gradually add flour while stirring. Beat until smooth. Shape dough into 48 1-inch (2.5 cm) balls.

Spread half the cookies with Cream Cheese Icing and top with remaining ones, pressing lightly. Dust with sugar.
