| 1 1/2 | cups | flour, all-purpose | |
| 1/2 | cup | cocoa powder | unsweetened |
| 1/2 | cup | powdered sugar | |
| 1 | cup | butter, unsalted | |
| 1/2 | teaspoon | vanilla extract | |
| 1 | cup | sugar | granulated |
| 1/2 | cup | pecans | ground |
Flattening the cookies turns them nice and crispy and you can make them even crunchier by topping them with crystallized sugar rather than the granulated.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Grease a baking sheet well.
Place the flour, cocoa, and confectioners' sugar in a food processor.
Turn the machine on and slowly add the butter, 2 tablespoons/30 g/1 ounce at a time.
Add the vanilla and process until the dough forms a ball on top of the blades.
In the palms of your hands, roll the dough into circles about 1/2 inch/1 cm thick.
Place on the prepared baking sheet and press each circle of dough down with the bottom of a glass until it is about 1/4 inch/0.5 cm thick.
Sprinkle the dough with the granulated sugar and pecans and press again to flatten.
Bake the cookies until brown, about 10 minutes.
Cool them on the baking sheet before serving.

We all know the Christmas morning routine. The parents get as much sleep as they can because they’re parents while the kids are up bright and early at about 6 a.m....
These are great! I've had to fight off my kids and my husband so I can get the dough in the oven!!! I tried to use the wax paper but it didn't work (I set off the smoke alarm) so I went without. It worked fine. I only cooked them for 5 min. so watch them closely until you get the time right.
