Рецепт Chocolate Crinkle Cookies
It is December and it is full on baking season. With Thanksgiving being so late this year, I feel like Christmas is right around the corner. It is hard to fit all of the goodies I want to share with you in! But there is always room for chocolate, and today is the December #chocolateparty! This month the challenge was to make a chocolate cookie. Anything chocolate would do. Pretty easy, huh? I mean, it is chocolate!
I have made these cookies many times over the years. A chocolate crinkle cookie is kind of a staple on most holiday cookie trays. They are rich and fudgy, and with this recipe you don’t even have to feel guilty about eating them. They clock in at just under 100 calories per cookie. And the recipe only makes 2 dozen cookies. This is my kind of recipe for sure! I love to have all sorts of different treats around the holidays, but I don’t need 4 dozen of each kind.
Chocolate crinkle cookies are something you do have to plan ahead for. The dough needs to chill for at least 2 hours before baking. You are using melted chocolate, so it needs to firm up or your cookies will just spread and be a mess. I mixed up my dough one afternoon, and let them sit in the fridge until the next day when I baked them. So what are your favorite treats to have around in December?
