Dear Reader,
Chocolate Crackles is one of my favorite cookie recipes. It's a rich chocolate cookie, lightly dusted with powdered sugar and it's just the right size to pop into my mouth. One bite and I'm in chocolate heaven. Let me know if you try them.
Chocolate Crackles
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
6 Tablespoons butter
3 squares (3 ounces) unsweetened chocolate, melted
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 eggs
1 1/2 teaspoon real vanilla
1 1/2 cup flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt Confectioner's sugar
Cream the butter until light and fluffy. Add the melted chocolate and sugar and blend well. Stir together the flour, baking powder and salt. Add to the creamed mixture and blend well.
Refrigerate 3 hours, or until firm. Shape the dough into balls about one inch. Dredge each ball in confectioner's sugar (powdered sugar).
Coat thoroughly. Put on cookie sheet, two inches apart. Cookies may seem slightly underdone, but will firm up after cooking, when they cool.
Bake 10 to 12 minutes on a greased cookie sheet or use parchment paper.
Thanks for reading with me. It's so good to read with friends.
Happy Holidays,
Suzanne Beecher
