How to Make Chocolate Cookie Pretzels
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter, 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and ½ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Divide the dough into 24 equal pieces.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll each piece into a pencil-thick rope (about 12 inches long).
- Shape each rope into a pretzel: cross the ends, and fold them over to rest on the loop.
- Place pretzels 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set.
- Let cool on the baking sheet for 1 minute before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cool, sprinkle with powdered sugar, drizzle with chocolate glaze, or dip half of each pretzel in melted chocolate or frosting.
