Chocolate crinkles are my favorite cookie! This is the recipe I use and I have to say they are awesome!!

1/4 c butter
4 1-oz unsweetened chocolate squares
2 c flour
2 t baking powder
2 t vanilla
1/2 t salt
3 eggs

powdered sugar for rolling

1. melt butter and chocolate in microwave; stir and let cool slightly
2. stir in remaining ingredients except powdered sugar of course
3. mix it together the best you can – you will need to use your hands to really get the dough mixed up
4. cover dough and chill at least 1/2 hour
5. shape dough into 1 inch balls & roll in powdered sugar
6. place about 2 inches apart on cookie shhet
7. bake 9-12 minutes on 350 (preheated)

Hope someone likes this recipe as much as I do!

I remember the soft, chocolate crinkles from childhood and am in search of that recipe. I thought it called for creaming the butter and sugar.

Has anyone tried the recipe from Joy of Baking that uses butter instead of oil. I found this recipe and will try it today.

Thanks Suzanne! It’s so annoying when I try something I really like in a bakery or from someone else’s kitchen and then try to make it myself it never ever turns out as good!

I’m 100% in love with your blog, and I just found it today.
I too love LOVE Chocolate Crinkle cookies..the best place I’ve found them so far is this little Menanite bakery about 45 minutes from my home in MO. I’ve yet to figure out how to make them how they do!
