FUDGY CHOCOLATE CRINKLES

These are more chocolatey than most, due to a mistake on my part (I accidentally used 50% more chocolate than the recipe called for), but I got so many raves from my Christmas cookie recipients, that I decided to make the error part of the recipe. All you chocolholics out there, enjoy! Prep time includes time for the dough to chill.

Time 3h12m

Yield 60 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (12 ounce) bag chocolate chips
1/2 cup butter
2/3 cup sugar
3 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 2/3 cups flour
confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325.
  • Melt butter and chocolate chips together in a saucepan over medium-low heat or in the microwave, until the butter melts.
  • Remove from heat and stir until the chocolate melts and the mixture is smooth.
  • In the bowl of a mixer, beat together the sugar, eggs and vanilla.
  • Stir in the chocolate mixture.
  • Stir in the flour, baking soda and salt.
  • Chill the dough for 2-3 hours or overnight.
  • Pour approximately a cup of confectioners sugar into a shallow bowl.
  • Roll 1 1/4 inch diameter balls of dough (a heaping teaspoon) and drop the balls into the bowl of confectioners sugar.
  • Working with 4-5 at a time, shake the bowl until the balls are completely coated and place them on a greased or parchment-lined cookie sheet.
  • Leave about 1 1/2 inches between balls.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes.
  • The cookies will flatten out and the surface will crack.
  • Cool on wire racks.
  • After the cookies have cooled, I like to shake a little extra sugar on top using a sifter or a small strainer.

Tips:

  • Chill the dough: Chilling the dough helps to firm it up and makes it easier to roll into balls. This also helps the cookies to hold their shape better in the oven.
  • Use a cookie scoop: A cookie scoop helps to ensure that all of the cookies are the same size and shape. This will help them to bake evenly.
  • Roll the cookies in powdered sugar: Rolling the cookies in powdered sugar before baking gives them a classic crinkled appearance. Be sure to coat the cookies evenly.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set: The cookies should be baked until they are just set in the center. Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely: Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack before serving. This will help them to firm up and develop their full flavor.

Conclusion:

Fudgy Chocolate Crinkle Cookies are a delicious and festive treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With their rich chocolate flavor and crinkled appearance, these cookies are sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
