Chocolate Crinkle Cookies are a very chocolatey cookie that is dairy free. These cookies are pretty to look at and they taste even better than they look. You can prepare these cookies with great ease.
These Chocolate Crinkle Cookies have been a favorite of mine this year. I have made so many batches of these cookies it is insane. I have to tell you never was a cookie left. These cookies are rich and full flavored, and perfect for the chocolate lover in your home.
You have to mix the batter, then let it rest, it must be fully chilled before you make the cookies. The cookies are even better if you have time to let them rest for 24 hours. The cookies become very chewy.

Why are we preheating oven as stated first in the directions if dough needs to never refrigerated for hours?
Are they still great if not chilling dough?
Getting ready to make now. ; )

It’s most likely I didn’t know where to put the preheated oven. I hope you weren’t preheating your oven for 2 hours.
