These dramatically craggy cookies call upon Chinese five-spice for their warming complexity, blending flavors like star anise and cloves to create a unique, aromatic taste.
Tossing the dough balls in granulated sugar before chilling creates a protective barrier that prevents the powdered sugar from dissolving while baking, resulting in a striking presentation.
Freezing the dough balls for exactly 15 minutes solidifies the outside while keeping the center soft, leading to a beautifully cracked exterior as they spread.
It's crucial to measure flour correctly by gently spooning it into the cup and leveling it off to achieve optimal cookie dough consistency.
