Place powdered sugar in separate bowl.
For each cookie, scoop 1 rounded tablespoon dough and place in powdered sugar.
Roll dough gently into balls, coating thoroughly with powdered sugar.
 |
| And they mean thoroughly! If you half-ass this part, your cookies just end up looking kind of dusty and weird. To get the "crackle" effect, you need really sharp contrast. |
Place 2
inches apart onto greased cookie sheet.
 |
| More or less. |
Bake 11-13 minutes. Makes 2 ½ dozen
cookies.
 |
| See? You can tell which ones were coated "thoroughly," because they're the ones that look much more awesome. |
My Rating: 4/5 "I ate a couple of these right out of the oven, and they were moist and chocolatey and otherwise decadent. The powdered sugar doesn't even get all over your fingers - they're very tidy! The next day I took them to one of the classes I teach, then to a meeting, and then to a graduate seminar I'm taking, and people seemed to munch on them with relish at all of these places. My friend Liz, whose palate I highly respect, told me that they taste like Dunkin Donuts, which seems like a ringing endorsement to me!"
