Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside. In a medium saucepan, heat the butter, chocolate, and 1 3/4 cups of sugar over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth. Let cool slightly.
  2. Then add the Grand Marnier and eggs and mix until smooth. Add the flour mixture and knead into a dough.

  3. Transfer to a bowl, cover and refrigerate for 2 hours.
  4. Position oven racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  5. Place the remaining 1/4 cup sugar and powdered sugar in two separate shallow bowls. Scoop out 1 tablespoon of dough and form the dough into balls. Roll a few dough balls at a time in sugar, coating them on all sides, then transfer to powdered sugar and roll again.
  6. Place cookies on prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 4 cm (1.5 inches) apart. Bake, rotating the baking sheets halfway through, until puffed and cracked, about 12 minutes. Let cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
