A gift of tea led me to bake something sweet. The combination of cinnamon and chocolate is commonly found in Mexican chocolate and the Mexicans got this one right.
Whisked flour,cocoa powder, heaping 1/2 t cinnamon, salt, and baking soda. Beat 3 sticks of butter with 1 C sugar and when light and fluffy, added flour mixture until jsut combined. Spread dough in 13 x 9" pan buttered and lined with parchment paper. Chilled dough in freezer for 15 minutes and pricked dough with fork. Baked for 22 minutes in a 325 degree oven. Transfer to a wire rack and while still hot, cut into pieces. Sprinkle with sugar and cool completely in pan.
So simple, so decadent and so perfect with a cup of tea!
Oh my goodness! So chocolaty and delicious. I guess it was the cinnamon that made it so wonderful. Lovely.
