How to Make Kahlua Cookies
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Cream together the softened margarine and granulated sugar in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Use an electric mixer for best results.
- Beat in the Kahlua and egg until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Cover the bowl and chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes.
- In a small bowl, combine the powdered sugar and cocoa powder.
- Roll the chilled dough into 1-inch balls.
- Roll each ball in the cocoa-powdered sugar mixture to coat evenly.
- Place the coated dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
- Gently flatten each cookie with a fork, creating a crisscross pattern.
- Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
