Easy Chocolate Crinkle Cookies

Easy Chocolate Crinkle Cookies

We haven't made these easy chocolate crinkle cookies for a couple of years. So, this year Fran found the recipe and we decided to add this one to our Holiday cookie list.

These are so easy to make and oh-so-good. They're crisp on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside. Who doesn't love chocolate? The chocolate flavor is to die for.

You can find many recipes to make these easy chocolate crinkle cookies using a cake mix or brownie mix. We prefer this easy-to-make homemade recipe.

Here is what you need: 


2 cups white sugar
4 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt

How to make easy chocolate crinkle cookies:

We always use our KitchenAid Stand Mixer. But, you can mix this in a medium bowl using a hand mixer.

First mix together the cocoa powder, white sugar, and vegetable oil. Then beat in the eggs one at a time then, mix in the vanilla.

Add the flour, salt, and baking powder to the cocoa mixture. Mix this until a dough is formed. Then cover and refrigerate for four hours.

Roll the dough into one-inch balls and coat with powdered sugar.

Place them on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. I'm not so perfect so some of mine were a little bigger. 

I preheated the oven to 350 degrees and placed them on the center rake. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes.

Since I made some a little larger than one inch I baked for about 14 minutes.

Leave these on the cookie sheet for a minute or more then you can move them to a rack to cool.



As always thanks for stopping by and I hope you enjoy it.

  4. These cookies look delicious Sam! At first, I thought I had tried them before, but after reading your recipe, I now see that they are completely new to me. I might just have to try them for New Years! We are all little chocolate fiends here :)

  5. Don't know how I missed this cookie recipe before Christmas. Sure glad I found it now. It looks and sounds (reads) delicious. I think I may have had these many years ago as my taste buds seem to remember the taste. I'll have to make some to see if I remember correctly! :)

  6. I just happen to have unsweetened cocoa powder in my cupboard. I feel a cookie baking time coming up! I think I'd like to try putting some walnut pieces in mine. Love chocolate and nuts together. :)
