Chocolate-Mint Crackles image

The tops of these brownie-like cookies look as if they've been shattered. Coat the balls of dough thoroughly in confectioners' sugar before they go in the oven. They'll flatten and "crack" on their own as they bake.

Time 4h

Yield Makes 30

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 cup unsweetened Dutch-process cocoa powder, sifted
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
3/4 teaspoon pure mint extract
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Melt chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water, stirring.
  • Whisk together flour, baking powder, and cocoa in a small bowl.
  • Whisk together granulated sugar, eggs, and melted butter in a medium bowl. Gradually whisk in melted chocolate and mint extract until smooth. Stir in flour mixture. Refrigerate until firm, at least 3 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Roll tablespoons of dough into balls using your palms, then roll in confectioners' sugar to coat. Transfer to parchment-lined baking sheets, spacing each 1 inch apart. Bake until slightly firm in the center, about 15 minutes.
  • Let cool slightly on sheets set on wire racks. Transfer cookies to racks, and let cool completely.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my crackles didn't turn out at all. They were too crumbly.

I'm not a big fan of mint, but these crackles are still really good. The chocolate flavor is strong enough to balance out the mint.

These crackles are so delicious, but they're a bit too rich for me. I can only eat a few at a time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my crackles turned out too dry. I think I might have overcooked them.
