Soft chocolate cookies with cocoa
Description
The baking is simple and quick. We prepare classic butter dough with added cocoa, chill it for half an hour in the refrigerator, then cut out the cookies. These cookies bake for only 10 minutes. Be sure to try them! Good luck with cooking—serve with tea or coffee.

Step 6
Take a glass with a flat bottom. I didn't have one, so I'm using a shaped lid. To prevent the dough from sticking to the glass/lid, wrap the lid in plastic wrap.
