CHOCOLATE-MINT CRACKLES
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.

Tips:
- Use good quality chocolate for the best flavor. A semisweet or dark chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 50% is ideal.
- Make sure the butter and chocolate are completely melted before adding the other ingredients. This will help to create a smooth and creamy mixture.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the crackles tough.
- Chill the batter for at least 30 minutes before shaping the crackles. This will help them to hold their shape better.
- Use a small cookie scoop or a melon baller to shape the crackles. This will help to ensure that they are all the same size.
- Roll the crackles in cocoa powder or chopped nuts before placing them on the baking sheet. This will give them a nice coating and help to prevent them from sticking together.
- Bake the crackles for 10-12 minutes, or until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
- Let the crackles cool completely before enjoying them. This will help them to firm up and develop their full flavor.
