Double Chocolate Crackled Cookies Recipe
These Double Chocolate Crackled Cookies are decadent with a bit of spiciness without the heat.
Over past few weeks I’ve prepared a variety of different recipes, most of which are desserts—many of them cookies. Thank goodness cookies are one of our family’s favorite, plus we’ve had a great many teenagers (I love em all!) in and out of our home over the past few months with football games and other after-school activities so the cookies have come in handy. Teenagers do like some cookies. Although I was a little bit curious to see if they would like these Double Chocolate Crackled Cookies since they have a little bit spice in the form of Ancho Chili Pepper. But they surprised me, as teenagers are apt to do, and gobbling them down. They are mighty good.
These Double Chocolate Crackled Cookies are not spicy as far as “give me a glass of water spicy,” but more spicy as in warm spicy flavor spicy, if that makes any sense. They’re pretty quick to make with basic ingredients. The batter can be made ahead, and refrigerated or frozen. Balls of dough could even be shaped into balls and stored in a zipper top freezer bag and frozen or refrigerated for a couple of days, then easily plopped on a cookie sheet to beak up in minutes.
Enjoy!

Notes
I love these! They sound perfectly chocolatey!
I absolutely love how spice and chocolate go together! These would be so so SO amazing with a glass of milk!
These sound yummy! 🙂
Do you know if regular cinnamon can be substituted?
Hey Gabby,
Of course! Bake on! 😉
Ooo…I can’t wait to try these! I bet the chile in there makes them even more addictive. And you’re right, teenagers do love some cookies. 😉
I love the chocolate and spice combination! So good!
You pictures are beautiful and the recipe sounds delicious-reminds me of Mexican Hot Chocolate but in cookie form, can’t wait to bake them. You have a beautiful website.
I wish my boyfriend liked chocolate more so I could make more cookies like these!
Hey, more for you since he doesn’t like chocolate. 🙂
Wow, these cookies are calling out to me!! I love this!
do you know if regular chili powder would work in place of ancho chili powder?
Yes, Sharona. I think that would be fine. Depending on the chili powder you use, you may want to adjust for the heat factor.
