Don’t you just want to sink your teeth into one of these Triple Chocolate Crinkle Cookies?! Trust me, you’ll love their powdered sugar coating, crispy crust, and cakey/brownie-like taste and texture! Made with three types of chocolate, they will be the answer to all your chocolate needs and dreams.
LOOKS
These cookies go into the oven as powdery white balls and come out with cute, crinkly, black and white tops. Most of the powdered sugar remains on the exterior, but the cracks give the cookie their distinct look and reveal the rich chocolate flavor that awaits inside!
TASTE AND TEXTURE
One of the things you’ll first notice when eating these classic cookies is the thick coating of powdered sugar. That sweet powdered sweetness will be immediately followed by chocolate. These heavenly treats have melted unsweetened chocolate, cocoa powder, and mini chocolate chips all mixed together and that gives them the richness of a brownie!
In terms of texture, you’ll find the most delightful crust that gives way to a center that’s a cross between a cake and a brownie.
MAKING THEM
These Triple Chocolate Crinkle Cookies are easy to make! You whisk or sift the dry ingredients together, cream the butter and sugar together, combine the wet and dry ingredients along with your chocolate and then let the dough chill. Letting the dough chill helps the flavor develop, makes the dough easier to shape, and keeps the balls from spreading when baked.
Once your dough is nicely chilled, you roll the dough into one inch balls. You can eyeball this or use a scooper. Next, you just roll the balls in powdered sugar and place them on the cookie sheet. Bake, cool, then eat!
INGREDIENTS AND SIZE
I’ve come across a lot of chocolate crinkle cookie recipes that call for oil instead of butter. You can either one. Also, if you want larger cookies, just make the balls a bit bigger and you may need to cook them a little longer.
CLASSICS
Chocolate Crinkle Cookies are right up there with Snickerdoodles and Chocolate Chips cookie in my opinion! For some reason, they’re more common during the holidays. I think they’re awesome and that you can make and enjoy them year round! Packed with chocolate, covered in dusty powdered sugar and full of homemade love, these Chocolate Crinkle Cookies are a classic for good reason!
