In a bowl, mix the first 4 ingredients together; set aside.
Using an electric mixer, beat the butter and next 3 ingredients together until creamy.
Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating just until blended after each addition.
Gradually add in flour mixture, beating on low speed until blended.
Fold in chocolate chunks.
Drop dough by heaping tablespoonfuls onto parchment paper-lined cookie sheets.
Bake in preheated 350\u00b0 oven for 10-12 minutes or until puffy.
Cool on baking sheets 2 minutes; remove to wire racks, and let cool 30 minutes or until completely cool.
Make frosting: stir together the first 4 frosting ingredients until smooth.
Gradually add powdered sugar, stirring until creamy.
Spread cookies with Mocha Frosting.
Dust evenly with powdered sugar, if desired.
