Cappuccino Crinkles

This was a new recipe this year... and I think it's a winner:

1/3 cup butter

1 cup packed brown sugar

2/3 cup cocoa

1 Tbsp instant coffee crystals

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp cinnamon

2 egg whites

1/3 low fat vanilla yogurt

1.5 cups flour

1/4 cup sugar

................

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Beat butter on high speed for 30 secs.

Add brown sugar, cocoa and coffee, baking soda, cinnamon.

Beat until combined.

Beat in eggs and yogurt until combined.

Mix in as much flour as you can with the mixer (might have to do the rest by hand.... my mixer managed to mix it all though).

Place sugar in small bowl.

Shape dough into 1 inch balls, roll in sugar, place on ungreased cookie sheet.

Bake for 8-10 minutes, til edges are firm. Cool on cooling rack.

Makes about 32 cookies.
