Chocolate Crinkle Cookies
These chocolate crinkle cookies are a holiday classic, well-loved for their rich, fudgy flavor and beautiful crinkle appearance. Making these cookies is really easy and requires just a few common ingredients. Before baking, you’ll roll the cookie dough balls in powdered sugar. My kids love to help with this part! We usually end up with powdered-sugar-coated kids, as well as cookies! As the cookies bake in the oven, they expand, forming crinkles in the powdered sugar coating.
These crinkle cookies are perfect for adding to cookie plates or a holiday dessert table. They are a crowd-pleaser, and always disappear quickly. I haven’t met a person yet who doesn’t love them! Rich and fudgy Chocolate Crinkle Cookies are a holiday favorite! This Christmas cookie recipe is easy to make. The cookies are rolled in powdered sugar before baking to give the cookies their beautiful crinkle appearance.
