Time 3h40m

Yield 24 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups all-purpose flour (see Cook's Note)
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons finely grated citrus zest (lemon, lime or orange) plus 3 tablespoons juice
4 to 6 drops yellow, green or orange gel food coloring
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl.
  • Combine the butter, brown sugar and 1/2 cup granulated sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, scraping the sides of the bowl as needed, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the egg and beat until incorporated. Add the vanilla extract, citrus zest, citrus juice and food coloring and beat until incorporated. Decrease the mixer speed to low and add the flour mixture, beating until just combined. Cover the bowl and refrigerate until firm, at least 2 hours and up to overnight.
  • Put the confectioners' sugar in a small bowl and the remaining 1/2 cup granulated sugar in another small bowl. Scoop tablespoons of the chilled dough and roll into balls. Toss each ball in the granulated sugar first, then in the confectioners' sugar, coating them very generously and thoroughly. Arrange the balls about 1 inch apart on 2 baking sheets (you should have 24 balls). Refrigerate for 20 minutes.
  • Position the oven racks in the top and bottom thirds of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F.
  • Bake until the cookies spread, the tops crack and the edges are firm, 14 to 16 minutes. Let cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes, then transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.

A decadent rich little chocolate cookie. Very pretty and simple to make. I love to use them in cookie swaps

Provided by Dr.JenLeddy

Categories     Dessert

Time 43m

Yield 36 cookies, 18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened Dutch-processed cocoa powder (I used Ghirardelli)

2 large eggs, beaten lightly
1 teaspoon vanilla
4 tablespoons confectioners' sugar, plus additional for dusting hands

Steps:

  • In a bowl (preferably metal) stir together flour, granulated sugar, cocoa, baking powder, salt, and blend in butter. Stir in egg and vanilla until mixture is blended. NOTE: (Some people add ¼ cup mini chocolate chips to make richer, I did not).
  • Spread dough in a thin layer in bowl and freeze 10 minutes, or until firm.
  • Preheat oven to 400°F and lightly grease 2 baking sheets.
  • Put 4 tablespoons confectioners' sugar in a small bowl and dust hands with additional. Roll each piece of dough into a ball (small - gumball size) and then in confectioners' sugar in bowl. Arrange balls 2 inches apart on baking sheets, bake 8 to 10 minutes, or until cookies are just set. Cool cookies on racks.

CHOCOLATE CRACKLE COOKIES



Chocolate Crackle Cookies image

A variegated pattern of deep dark chocolate and pure white powdered sugar makes these crinkly cookies a striking study in contrast. Roll balls of the rich dough first in granulated sugar, then in confectioners' sugar. The first layer ensures that the second one retains its snowy white appearance.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cookie Recipes

Yield Makes 5 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 ounces bittersweet chocolate, coarsely chopped
1 1/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1/2 cup unsweetened Dutch-process cocoa powder
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 cups packed light-brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/3 cup whole milk
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Melt chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water, stirring. Set aside, and let cool. Sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl; set aside.
  • Mix butter and brown sugar on medium speed until pale and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Mix in eggs and vanilla, and then the melted chocolate. Reduce speed to low; mix in flour mixture in 2 batches, alternating with the milk. Divide dough into 4 equal pieces. Wrap each in plastic; refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours.
  • Divide each piece into 16 (1-inch) balls. Roll in granulated sugar to coat, then in confectioners' sugar to coat. Space 2 inches apart on baking sheets lined with parchment paper.
  • Bake until surfaces crack, about 14 minutes. Let cool on sheets on wire racks. Cookies can be stored between layers of parchment in airtight containers up to 3 days.

Tips:

  • Use fresh desiccated coconut for the best flavor and texture.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can grate the coconut by hand.
  • Be careful not to overmix the dough, as this will make the cookies tough.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking, as this will help the cookies to keep their shape.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just golden brown, as overbaking will make them dry.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before dipping them in the chocolate.
  • If you don't have time to dip the cookies in chocolate, you can simply sprinkle them with icing sugar.

Conclusion:

Coconut crackle cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With their chewy coconut centers and crispy chocolate coating, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat to make, give coconut crackle cookies a try!
