Chocolate Crinkle Cookies. This fun cookie recipe is the perfect addition to your cookie trays! A chocolate cookie base is rolled in powdered sugar and baked for crinkle perfection. 

Holiday cookie trays are my specialty.

I happen to be a very good cookie creator. Or at least I like to think so.

My crowned jewel or best cookie ever?

Chocolate Crinkle Cookies

These chewy cookies are a lot like edge brownies.

Slight crisp exterior with a soft center. Perfection.

The only difference is they have that wonderful sugar coating.

We lovingly refer to them as chocolate snowballs.

Like all of my recipes, this one is super simple to make.

You will have things mixed up and in the oven in under 10 minutes!

Make sure you save a few to share because they are going to disappear quick!
