Chocolate Crackle Cookies

These are cookies but they really just taste like chewy little brownies. So if you want to make brownies that are shaped like a cookie, I guess this ones for you. They're also quite pretty. Made these for Christmas this year and got lots of recipe requests - they're a real people pleaser.



  • 1/4 cup butter

  • 2 cups sugar

  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil

  • 4 large eggs

  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

  • 2 cups flour

  • 3/4 cup powdered baking cocoa (unsweetened)

  • 2 tsp baking powder

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 1 cup powdered sugar (to coat)

Mix butter & sugar in a large bowl. Add oil & vanilla. Mix.


Add eggs. Mix.


Add flour, cocoa, baking powder & salt. Mix.


Let chill a couple of hours or overnight.


Scoop dough into tablespoon sized balls. Try using an ice cream scoop.


Roll in powdered sugar & place on greased pan.


Bake at 350 for 11-12 minutes.
