  1. My Mom's recipe calls these chocolate crackles because of the way the cookie and powdered sugar look after baking. SG is right, they are sooo good for a chocolate fix. We make these every year at Christmas time - it's a must.
     
  2. That sound very good. And i Luv chocolate and so does my family. so it seems good.
     
  3. As I rolled these chocolate balls and coated them in white powdered sugar I wondered why they were called wagon wheels. After they cooked I understood!! How cute they are. Very tasty too. They make another great after school snack for my son (and me!) I also loved being able to mix the batter one day, and cook it the next - right before he came in.
     
  4. These were very tasty, though I wouldn't say that they were as chocolatey as I thought they would be. I also had to cook them much longer then the time given, though I may have made them bigger then we were told to. But really good flavor.
