How to Make Chocolate Waffle Drops Cookies

  1. Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter and ¾ cup granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  2. Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon baking powder, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
  5. Stir in ½ cup chopped nuts (optional).
  6. **Waffle Maker Method:** Preheat your waffle maker. Drop rounded teaspoons of cookie dough onto the hot waffle plates, leaving 2 inches between each cookie. Bake for approximately 1 minute, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and let cool completely.
  7. **Oven Method:** Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Drop rounded teaspoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving 2 inches between each cookie.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until edges are set and the centers are slightly soft. Let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Once completely cool, sift powdered sugar generously over the cookies.
