Chocolate chips and a convenient brownie mix provide the rich chocolate flavor in these sweet cookies from Ellen Govertsen of Wheaton, Illinois. Rolling the dough in powdered sugar gives them their inviting crackled appearance.

A bakery in town makes brownie crackles. I have tried to duplicate the recepi many times....this one wins!

I can always count on these to be soft! Other recipes for crackles I have used don't always turn out that way and that is the consistency I love and remember from my childhood. It is important to refrigerate the dough (and return to fridge if it gets too soft) to make it more manageable to roll into balls.

The taste was fine. Who doesn't like brownies? But, the batter was not stable enough to roll in the powered sugar. Total disaster! Disappointing to say the least.

These cookies are so easy to make. I make gift baskets for friends and neighbors and they always want these in them.

I found this recipe a couple of years ago in one of my TOH mags. It quickly became THE most requested holiday cookie that I make!!

These were good, but not outstanding. I had a tough time rolling the batter in powdered sugar - the dough seemed too gloopy. But the finished product was still fine.
