Chocolate Crinkle Cookies

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.

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 a cookie was left. These cookies are rich, full-flavored, and perfect for the chocolate lover in your home.

Crinkle cookies are like little round brownies. They are crispy on the outside and the inside is soft, tender, and chewy.

Powdered sugar on the outside gives these cookies their classic look and an extra touch of sweetness. The cookie dough balls flatten and spread while baking causing their crinkled appearance.

Ingredients

This is what you need to make the cookies:

• Cocoa Powder
• Sugar
• Vegetable Oil
• Eggs
• Vanilla
• All-purpose Flour
• Baking Powder
• Salt
• Powdered Sugar

How to Make Chocolate Crinkle Cookies

• Combine cocoa powder and sugar in a mixing bowl.
• Add oil and eggs. Mix until well combined.
• Add vanilla, flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix until thoroughly combined.
• Refrigerate dough for at least 3 hours (best overnight).
• Make dough balls and roll in powdered sugar.
• Bake for 10 to 12 minutes at 350 degrees.

It is important to mix the batter then let it rest in the refrigerator. The dough 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.
