Recipe: Crinkly Chocolate Cookies

My go-to recipe when I fancy baking something chocolatey is Chocolate Brownies, but yesterday I was in the mood for something new, so I decided to make some chocolate cookies. They turned out really well so I thought I'd share the recipe for you guys to have a go!
Start by melting 100g dark chocolate and 80g butter in a small saucepan. Meanwhile, combine 225g caster sugar, 125g plain flour, 1 medium egg, 1/4tsp bicarbonate of soda, and 2tbsp cocoa powder in a large bowl, and mix well.
Pour the melted chocolate mixture into the bowl and stir to combine. The mixture will be thick and quite sticky. Cover and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
Remove from the fridge, and take 1tbsp amounts of mixture; roll into a ball, roll in icing sugar, and place on a lined baking sheet.
Bake at 160°C for 15 minutes, and allow to cool on the tray. As you can see, I didn't leave quite enough space between mine for them to spread as they baked, so it might be better to do them in two batches to avoid this problem... They still taste good, though - soft, chocolatey and delicious!
