Chocolate rules the day..

Seems yummy and simple enough to try. http://www.blisstree.com/chocolatebytes/chocolate-sugar-cookies/
Chocolate Sugar Cookies
2 1/4 cups white, all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
1 3/4 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
3 egg yolks
1/4 cup unsweetened dark cocoa powder
Pinch of salt
Powdered sugar
~ Place the flour on your work space and make a well in it. Add all the other ingredients and kneed the mixture with your hands until it forms a ball of dough.
~ Divide the dough in two equal parts. Place the first half on a sheet of parchment paper and roll it out with a rolling pin until it’s less than 1/2 inch thick. Cut the dough with cookie cutters. Repeat with second half of dough.
~ Bake at 350 degrees for 12 minutes or until done. Sprinkle with powdered sugar.
These would also be great with a basic buttercream frosting, or some melted, drizzled white chocolate and sprinkles.
