Directions
Preheat oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with Silpats or parchment paper.
Beat butter with sugars until light and fluffy; add vanilla and egg and beat to combine. Add the flour, cocoa powders, salt, baking soda, and baking powder; mix to combine and slowly add the beer; beat just until combined; fold in chocolate chips; refrigerate the dough until firm (about 15 minutes).
Roll dough into 1.5” – 2” balls and place onto prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart. Bake at 350◦F for 15-17 minutes or until tops spring back lightly when touched. Cool on pan for 2-3 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Frost with Caramel Frosting (below) and top with Snyder’s of Hanover® pretzels
