Chocolate Crinkle Cookies

These chocolate crinkle cookies are the perfect cookie for the holiday season.

These chocolate crinkle cookies are so easy to make and delicious tasting. They are soft and just the right amount of chocolate-y-ness. They are rolled in powdered sugar to get that ‘crinkled’ look and it’s the funnest part for the kids to help out with. 

Today I’m joining a Christmas cookies tour hosted by Kristin of Ella Claire along with 15 other bloggers to get you in the holiday spirit. Be sure to visit all the sweet recipes at the end of the tour!

My daughter and I had such a fun time making these on the weekend. Between the Joyeux Noel printable and these Christmas cookies, it’s the first start to the holidays.

Once I finish editing the photos for my book this week, I can decorate for Christmas this coming weekend.

My daughter loved watching these chocolate morsels bake in the oven as the balls of dough split to make ‘crinkles.

  1. Chocolate Crinkles are one of my favorite cookies (.my daughters too). My mom who is 89, makes them every year along with carrot cake and pumpkin roll. She adds walnuts to the recipe which just adds to the yummymess! I remember the first time I made these they had a pecan half on top.
