Chocolate Crinkle Cookie Recipe
Chocolate crinkle cookies is one of the most popular Christmas cookies, other than butter cookies and melting moments cookies. This is an easy recipe that yields the best chocolate crinkle cookies ever! The recipe is 100% fail-proof and novice baker friendly. I love the cracked look and the contrast of the powdery white against the dark cocoa. These cookies have a brownie-like texture, moist, soft and a bit chewy. They look absolutely festive and make the best Christmas and holiday gifts to neighbors, friends and family.
How To Make Chocolate Crinkle Cookies
This is an easy recipe that calls for a simple 3-step process:
Make the cookie dough using a stand mixer. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for 4 hours. Roll the dough into balls, flattened with your hand and then coat with powdered sugar. Bake in the oven for 10 minutes.
Just follow the step-by-step method and instructions in the recipe card and watch my video above to make homemade chocolate crinkle cookies.
Baking Tips
To get the cookies extra white with powdered sugar, coat each cookie with a ton of powdered sugar before baking.This ensures the cookies don’t absorb the powdered sugar during bake time. To make the cookies extra festive, substitute the vanilla extract with peppermint extract to make chocolate peppermint crinkle cookies.
