Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Cream together the softened butter and sugar using an electric mixer on medium speed for about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and pink food coloring.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix just until combined.
  6. Scoop the dough and drop it onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing about 2 inches apart.
  7. Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are set and the centers are slightly soft.
  8. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
