Easy Chocolate Sand Roses
Delight in these buttery, melt-in-your-mouth chocolate sand roses, a quick and easy treat that combines rich chocolate with a crumbly, shortbread-like texture—perfect for any occasion. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a bowl, combine flour, cocoa powder, and a pinch of salt. In another bowl, cream the softened butter with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients to form a dough. If desired, fold in chocolate chips for extra richness. Roll the dough into small balls and flatten slightly with your fingers, shaping them into small rounds. Place on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes. Let cool,
