CHOCOLATE CRINKLE COOKIES WITH COCOA & SUGAR
Red Velvet
DESSERT
Chocolate Crinkle Cookies are a classic treat with rich cocoa flavor and a soft, brownie-like texture. Rolled generously in confectioner's sugar before baking, these cookies develop their signature crackled appearance as they puff and spread in the oven. Each bite reveals a tender center beneath the crisp, powdered sugar crust—perfect with a cold glass of milk or stacked high on a holiday dessert tray.
Ingredients
- 3 eggs
Included in the kit:
- pre-measured kit
- 1½ cups granulated sugar
- 2.5 oz vegetable oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1½ cups flour
- ¾ cup cocoa powder
- 1½ tsp baking powder
- ¾ tsp salt
- ¾ cup confectioner's sugar
Directions
Prep your ingredients:
- Take out 3 eggs from your refrigerator. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Preheat oven to 350°F.
Mix dry ingredients:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
Mix wet ingredients:
- In a large bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and eggs until combined. Fold in the dry mixture using a spatula until a ball of dough forms.
Shape the dough:
- Roll the dough into about 24 balls the size of a golf ball. If too sticky, refrigerate briefly. Place on the prepared baking sheet.
Roll in sugar:
- Add confectioner’s sugar to a small bowl. Roll each dough ball until very well coated. Place 2” apart on baking sheet.
Bake and cool:
- Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until the cookies have spread and puffed. Let cool completely on a wire rack—they will flatten slightly as they cool.
