I have two kinds of crack cookies that I make. One is ginger molasses crack and the other is chocolate crack. Why do I call the crack cookies? Well, because you just can't stop eating them. It is nearly impossible once you have had one you have to have another. Especially fresh out of the oven these are irresistible. My recipe is adapted from Alice's Tea Cup's recipe.
Chocolate Crack Cookies
3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 cup dark chocolate chips
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup dark brown sugar
4 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
1 cup dark chocolate chips (this isn't a repeat)
Raw sugar for sprinkling
Preheat oven to 350*F. Combine the flour, cocoa, soda, and salt in a bowl and set aside. Melt the first cup of dark chocolate chips in the microwave (you can also use a double boiler on the stove top) being careful to make sure you don't burn the chocolate. Use a mixer to cream together the butter and sugar. On low beat in one at a time the chocolate, eggs, vanilla extract and dry ingredients. Mix until fully combined and smooth. Mix in the second cup of dark chocolate chips by hand. Scoop out dough and place on a non-stick cookie sheet. Sprinkle tops with raw sugar and bake in the oven for about 10-15 minutes. Let cool on the cookie sheet for just a little bit and enjoy! Try not to eat them all at once!
