  • 6 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup sugar or coconut sugar
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cup salted butter or vegan butter, melted
  • 1 egg or 4 tbsp milk of choice
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup chocolate chips (optional)
  • powdered sugar or sugar free alternative

Instructions

  • *If preferred, the dough can be made in advance, rolled into balls, and frozen for any time you need a quick dessert.
    To make chocolate crinkle cookies, combine dry ingredients except powdered sugar in a mixing bowl or stand mixer. Stir in wet ingredients to form a dough. Cover and freeze the dough until chilled, or refrigerate overnight. Preheat the oven to 300 F. Roll the chilled dough into balls, then cover in powdered sugar. Place on a baking sheet and bake 12 minutes. The chocolate cookies should look underdone when you take them out of the oven. Allow to cool fully before handling. They firm up during this time. Store leftovers in a covered container for up to five days.
