Chocolate Fire Cookies

• 1 cup Unsalted Butter, Room Temperature
• 3/4 cups Brown Sugar
• 2 whole Eggs
• 3 cups Whole Wheat Pastry Flour
• 2/3 cups Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
• 1/2 cups Skim Milk
• 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
• 1/2 teaspoons Salt
• 1/4 teaspoons Ground Black Pepper
• 1/2 teaspoons Ground Cayenne Or Hot Pepper Seasoning
• 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
• 1/3 cups Semisweet Chocolate Chips

1. Preheat the oven to 375F.
2. Using an electric mixer or stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter with the brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, beating until yellow and creamy.
3. Stir in the flour, cocoa powder, milk, baking soda, salt, pepper, cayenne and cinnamon. Mix just until there are no dry spots left in the dough. Fold in the chocolate chips.
4. Roll rounded tablespoonfuls of dough into balls and space 1 1/2" apart on a greased cookie sheet. Press down lightly with the palm of your hand to flatten the balls into 1/4"-thick disks.
5. Bake at 375F for 10-13 minutes, or until the tops of the cookies feel slightly firm and springy. Allow the cookies to rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
