The cookies turned out to be very tasty! It looks like soft chocolate gingerbread. Of this number of products, 13 came out.

How do I make chocolate crack cookies? Prepare the products. Pre-sift the flour and cocoa, this will save them from lumps and give the pastry additional pomp and airiness. I took cane sugar, instead of vanilla vanilla sugar. Remove the butter in advance from the refrigerator, it should become soft. Also remove the eggs beforehand and warm. They didn't get in the photo because they were basking in warm water.

Put the butter, sugar and salt in a bowl. Using a spatula or spoon, mix them until uniform. You can use a mixer, but I decided to do it manually, with a silicone shoulder blade. I did great.

Add to the cocoa butter mixture and stir again. Now it will be more difficult to stir, the mixture is quite dry, but the shoulder blade still coped.

Add the eggs. And stir again. At first it will seem that they will never mix with the bulk, but gradually the process will go. I repeat that you can take a mixer.

Eggs should mix completely with the dough, it will become smooth and uniform.

Pour baking powder into flour, stir. Start adding flour in parts. I divided the process into three stages. After each serving, stir in the flour thoroughly. The dough is ready. Put it in the freezer for 1 hour. It is in the freezer that it should quickly harden. The dough will not have time to freeze into stone, do not be afraid.

As time passes, remove the dough from the freezer. Using a measuring spoon, collect the same amount of dough and sculpt balls from it, the size of a walnut. That's why we needed to cool the dough - it's easier to roll balls from frozen dough. Roll the balls in the icing sugar.

Cover the baking tray with baking parchment. Put balls on it, making sure to make a distance between them. Cookies when baked will increase significantly in size.

Bake cookies for 15 minutes at 180 degrees. The cookies will spread to the sides before our eyes and will be covered with cracks that will be clearly visible due to the icing sugar. Very interesting process! Remove the finished cookies from the oven and make sure to allow them to cool completely. Cookies are very soft and tender, can break if you remove it hot. The cooled biscuits are easily removed from the paper. Serve cookies to the table. Enjoy your meal!

Be sure to wash your eggs before use, as even the seemingly clean shell may contain harmful bacteria. It is best to use food detergents and a brush.

Keep in mind that everyone has different ovens. The temperature and cooking time may differ from those indicated in the recipe. To make any baked dish successful, use useful information about the features of the ovens!
