Before we begin, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a separate mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. This can be done with a hand mixer or a stand mixer.
Once the butter and sugar are well combined, add in the egg yolk and vanilla extract. Mix until fully incorporated.
Gradually add in the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until a smooth dough forms.
Dust a clean surface with flour and roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thickness. Use a cookie cutter to cut out your desired shapes.
Place the cookies on the lined baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes until the edges are set. Allow them to cool on a cooling rack before adding the glaze.
While the cookies are cooling, make the chocolate glaze by melting 1/2 cup of chocolate chips in the microwave or on a double boiler. Stir in 1 tablespoon of butter until smooth and glossy.
Using a spatula, spread the chocolate glaze over the cooled cookies. You can also drizzle the glaze over the cookies for a more artistic look.
And there you have it, your very own batch of delicious and elegant Italian chocolate glazed cookies. Serve them with a cup of coffee or tea for the perfect afternoon treat. Enjoy!
