Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
In another bowl, cream together granulated sugar and butter using an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add in the egg and mix until combined.
Gradually mix in the dry ingredients until just combined; avoid overmixing.
Roll dough into small balls and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet with space between each.
Bake for about 10 minutes until edges are firm. Allow to cool completely.
For the filling, beat together softened butter, sifted powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth. Spread or pipe onto half of the cookies and top with remaining halves.
