Homemade Chocolate Wafers
Prep Time: 1 hour, 10 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 1 hour, 20 minutes
Yield: 4+ dozen cookies
1/2 cup (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, room temperature
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup packed dark brown sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup Dutch processed cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup milk
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, sugars and vanilla until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Meanwhile, in a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt.
Combine the dry ingredients to the butter mixture and stir until incorporated. Pour in the milk and mix until just combined.
Transfer the dough to a clean workspace and form into two 1+1/2-inch logs. Wrap tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mat. Use a serrated knife to slice the cookie dough into 1/8-inch discs, working with one log at a time and keeping the other in the fridge until ready to slice and bake. Place the discs on the prepared baking sheets.
Bake for 8 minutes, rotating the pans halfway through. Allow the cookies to cool on the pans for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Recipe Note: These cookies can be frozen.

NOTE FROM PEG--
The dough never got stiff enough to roll into a log….so I just rolled into balls and then flattened with a glass dipped into a little sugar and then baked. Worked great!
