Chocolate Crinkle Cookies

Meet my soft and chewy Chocolate Crinkle Cookies filled with chocolate chips and covered in sugar. They boast a fudgy brownie-like centre and a festive sugar crust.

With their perfect snow-white sugar shell and fudgy brownie middle, these are my delicious Chocolate Crinkle Cookies.

There is something incredibly festive about these cookies. I think it’s their white coating, which looks like a beautiful dusting of snow. Here in Australia, Christmas lands in the middle of summer which means all things hot and humid, so I have a soft spot for all things snow – especially at this time of the year.
