How to Make Devils Food Drop Cookies With Cream Cheese Frosting
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened unsalted butter and 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Melt 1 cup unsweetened chocolate and stir it into the wet ingredients.
- In a separate bowl, sift together 2 cups all-purpose flour, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda, and ¾ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with 1 cup sour cream, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Stir in 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional).
- Drop by rounded tablespoons onto prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until edges are set. Let cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- While cookies cool, prepare the cream cheese frosting:
- Beat together 4 ounces softened cream cheese, ½ cup (1 stick) softened unsalted butter, and 3 cups powdered sugar until smooth and creamy. Add more powdered sugar if needed to reach desired consistency.
- Once cookies are completely cool, frost generously and enjoy!
