Chocolate Crackle Cookies

Ingredients

• 3 cups flour
• 1 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 1/2 cups brown sugar
• 3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks butter)
• 2 tablespoons water
• 12 oz. package semi sweet chocolate chips
• 2 eggs, slightly beaten
• Rolos (if you so choose)
• Confectioners sugar (optional)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a medium sized bowl combine flour, baking soda and salt. Set aside. In a medium sauce pan combine brown sugar, butter and water. Heat on med until butter has melted. Add chocolate chips and stir until completely melted. Remove from heat and let stand at least 5 minutes. Beat eggs into the chocolate mixture. Gradually add in dry ingredients. Let the the dough stand for 10 minutes or until cool. Roll into 48 one-inch balls. Place 1 ball in each indentation of a mini-muffin pan. Bake 8 minutes. Remove from oven. Immediately press an un-wrapped Rolos candy, top side down, into each cookie. When cooled, sprinkle with Confectioners sugar and carefully remove each cookie from the pan. Enjoy!

Variation: use mini Reese's Peanut Butter Cups rather than Rolos
