Chocolate Moose Cookies

This is an Ann Clark cookie cutter. http://www.annclark.com/product/249/Whats-New

Cookies:
Cream together:
1 1/4 cups softened butter
1 1/2 cups sifted powdered sugar

Beat in:
1 egg

Mix together then add:
3 cups sifted flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 Teaspoon salt


Chocolate Glaze Ingredients:
2 oz. bittersweet chocolate
1 T vegetable oil


Pre-heat oven to 350.

Mix until all ingredients are well blended.
Divide into quarters and chill for 2 hours.
Roll out to 1/4" thickness between two sheets of waxed paper or on a floured board.
Cut into shapes and bake for 8-10 minutes.
Cookies can be frosted or eaten just plain.

I have also used this recipe in a cookie press. Chocolate spritz cookies, mmmmm.

Chocolate  glaze directions:
Melt the chocolate with oil using double boiler or use a water-filled saucepan and pyrex measuring cup. Make sure to not fill the water too high. If water gets into the chocolate, it will ruin the chocolate. Boil the water and stir the chocolate and oil until all is melted. Spread the chocolate onto the moose feet and antlers. Sprinkle with jimmies.
