Chocolate Crackled Cookies
I made these yesterday, and they turned out great. They're definitely best straight from the oven - crisp outside, with a gooey, chocolatey inside. Just make sure you plan the three hours they need to be in the fridge into your prep time!
Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cups firmly packed light brown sugar
- 1 stick Crisco® All-Vegetable Shortening (I used unsalted butter)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 2 cups PAll Purpose Flour
- 6 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 2/3 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
Directions
- Beat brown sugar, shortening and vanilla in large bowl at medium speed of electric mixer until well blended. Add eggs; beat well.
- Combine flour, cocoa, salt and baking soda. Add to shortening mixture; beat at low speed just until blended. Stir in chocolate chips. Cover and chill 3 hours.
- Heat oven to 375 degrees F. Shape dough into 1 1/4-inch balls. Roll in granulated sugar, then in powdered sugar to coat completely. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet.
- Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until cookies are set. Cool 2 minutes on cookie sheet. Remove cookies to wire rack to cool completely.
Makes 3 dozen
