How to Make Cracked Chocolate Chipper Cookies
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease and flour a baking sheet.
- In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) shortening, 1/2 cup water, and 1 1/2 cups packed brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1 teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, beating on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Stir in 2 cups chocolate chips.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate the dough for at least 1 hour (or up to overnight).
- Remove dough from the refrigerator. Roll into 1 1/2-inch balls.
- Roll each ball in powdered sugar until thoroughly coated.
- Place balls 1 1/2 to 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 7-9 minutes, or until edges are set and tops are cracked. Keep a close eye on them as they bake quickly.
- Let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
