Delicious Chocolate Crinkles Recipe for Cookie Lovers

Ingredients

Servings:
60
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar (packed)
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup powdered sugar (for rolling)

Instructions

9 steps

  1. Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.

    Make sure the oven is fully preheated for even baking.
  2. Mix Sugars and Oil

    In a large bowl, mix granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vegetable oil until well combined.

    Use a whisk for a smooth mixture.
  3. Add Eggs

    Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition until fully incorporated.

    This helps create a fluffy texture.
  4. Combine Dry Ingredients

    In another bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.

    Sifting helps remove lumps and aerate the ingredients.
  5. Mix Dry and Wet Ingredients

    Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.

    Do not overmix to keep cookies soft.
  6. Chill the Dough

    Cover the dough and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.

    Chilling helps the cookies maintain their shape.
  7. Form Cookies

    Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls, then roll in powdered sugar.

    Make sure to coat them well for that crinkly appearance.
  8. Bake

    Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheets and bake for 10-12 minutes.

    Watch for the edges to set while the centers remain soft.
  9. Cool and Serve

    Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

    Enjoy them warm or store in an airtight container.
