Recipe - Chocolate Crinkles

One fourth cup Butter
4 Squares unsweetened
chocolate
2 cup Flour
2 cup Sugar
2 teaspoon Baking powder
One half teaspoon Salt
3 Eggs
Powdered sugar

Melt butter and chocolate. Stir in all other ingredients EXCEPT powdered
sugar. Cover and chill for at least 30 minutes.

Preheat oven to 300.

Shape dough into 1inch balls. Roll well in powdered sugar. Place on
ungreased cookie sheet. Bake 15 to 18 minutes or until set. Cool on rack.

Makes about 3 One half dozen.

NOTES: I used 1 tablespoon butter and 3 tablespoons cocoa powder for each
ounce of chocolate, since I was out. It worked fine.

The cookies stick less if the pan is powdered with confec sugar before
placing cookies.
