Chocolate Crinkle Cookies

Soft and chewy, these Chocolate Crinkle Cookies are like fudge brownies in cookie form. Melted chocolate and cocoa powder add a rich chocolate flavor while powdered sugar adds the crinkle appearance on the outside.

Ingredients

Servings
  • cups dark chocolate (60 - 75%) finely chopped
  • 8 tablespoons unsalted butter softened
  • 1 teaspoon espresso powder
  • cups granulated sugar divided
  • ¼ cup light brown sugar
  • 2 eggs large
  • 3 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup dutch cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ¾ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Place a medium-sized heat-safe bowl over a medium-sized saucepan with 3-4 inches of simmering water on low heat. You can also use a double boiler. Add chocolate, butter, and espresso powder to the bowl.
  2. Stir chocolate constantly until smooth and melted.
  3. Remove chocolate from heat, and add ¾ cup granulated sugar and brown sugar. Mix until smooth.
  4. Whisk in the eggs and vanilla.
  5. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  6. Fold the dry ingredients into the wet until just combined.
  7. Cover the bowl with plastic and let chill in the fridge for 20-30 minutes.
  8. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  9. Place granulated sugar and powdered sugar in two separate small bowls.
  10. Using a medium cookie scoop, scoop the dough and roll carefully to create a ball.
  11. Roll the dough balls into the remaining granulated sugar until coated. Then roll in the powdered sugar until heavily coated.
  12. Place cookies 1-2 inches apart on a baking sheet. Bake for 9-11 minutes. Cookies will appear underdone when removed from the oven.
  13. Allow cookies to cool for 15 minutes on the cookie sheet before transferring to a cooling rack.

Notes

  • The dough doesn’t HAVE to chill but it does make these cookies thicker and chewier.
  • If the powdered sugar starts to melt you can re-dip in powdered sugar after the baked cookies cool.
  • Espresso powder can be omitted but doesn’t reduce the intensity of the chocolate flavor.
  • You’ll need about 7 to 8 ounces of chocolate to get 1¾ cups.
  • These are best consumed within 2 days of baking.
