Earlier this week I shared my favorite <a href=\"https:\/\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/soft-christmas-cut-sugar-cookies\/\">cut-out sugar cookie recipe<\/a>, so today I wanted to share another classic &#8211; these chocolate crinkle cookies.<\/p>\n<p>Truth be told, I attempted these cookies last year around Christmas time and I couldn&#8217;t find a recipe that I loved. I wanted the cookies to be soft, a little fudgy, and most importantly I wanted the powdered sugar to hold up well.&nbsp;After a lot of recipe testing, I finally created a recipe that checks all of those boxes and the powdered sugar holds up for days!<\/p>\n<p>These cookies are almost like a cakey brownie, but in cookie form.

Here are the ingredients that you will be using for this chocolate crinkle cookie recipe:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>All-Purpose Flour:&nbsp;<\/strong>This provides the structure for your cookies, be sure to spoon and level your flour as well. Too much flour can lead do a very dense and crumbly cookie.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cocoa Powder:&nbsp;<\/strong>There&#8217;s 1 cup of unsweetened cocoa powder in these cookies for maximum chocolate flavor. I used natural unsweetened cocoa powder, but Dutch-process would be fine too. I explain more about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/natural-vs-dutch-process-cocoa-powder\/\">the difference between both kinds of cocoa powders here<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Baking Powder &amp; Salt:&nbsp;<\/strong>The baking powder gives the cookies some lift and the salt balances out the sweetness of the cookies.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Melted Butter:&nbsp;<\/strong>In many of my cookie recipes I prefer to use softened butter, but for this recipe we&#8217;re using melted butter. Many chocolate crinkle cookies use oil, but I find that butter adds more flavor. Be sure to let your butter cool slightly before mixing it with the other ingredients as well.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sugar:&nbsp;<\/strong>I like to use a mix of brown sugar and granulated sugar, the brown sugar adds more flavor to the cookies and keeps them moist. I used light brown sugar, but dark brown sugar will work too.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li><strong>Eggs &amp; Vanilla:&nbsp;<\/strong>There are 4 large eggs in these cookies, which may seem like quite a bit, but it&#8217;s necessary for this particular dough. I recommend using room temperature eggs because cold eggs can shock the melted butter and cause it to solidify. The vanilla also adds a little flavor.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Powdered Sugar:&nbsp;<\/strong>Also known as confectioner sugar or icing sugar, the cookie dough is rolled into it right before baking.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"tiled-gallery type-rectangular tiled-gallery-unresized\" data-original-width=\"500\" data-carousel-extra='null' itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageGallery\" > <div class=\"gallery-row\" style=\"width: 500px;

height: 369px;\" \/> <\/div> <\/div> <!-- close group --> <\/div> <!-- close row --> <\/div>\n<h2>How To Make Chocolate Crinkle Cookies<\/h2>\n<p>To make these chocolate crinkle cookies, start by sifting together the flour and unsweetened cocoa powder. I highly recommend doing this, otherwise, you can end up with some lumps of cocoa powder in your cookies. Let&#8217;s be honest, no one wants that, so don&#8217;t skip it! Then, whisk in the baking powder and salt.<\/p>\n<p>In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar until they&#8217;re well combined. Then, mix in the eggs and pure vanilla extract until fully combined.&nbsp;Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix them together until just combined.<\/p>\n<p>This dough is very similar to brownie batter so don&#8217;t be worried once you mix it together, this is normal! The dough needs to be covered tightly and chilled for at least 2 hours, this will make the cookies bake up nice and thick and make the dough much easier to work with too.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tiled-gallery type-rectangular tiled-gallery-unresized\" data-original-width=\"500\" data-carousel-extra='null' itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageGallery\" > <div class=\"gallery-row\" style=\"width: 500px;

Store the frozen balls of cookie dough in a freezer bag or freezer-friendly storage container for up to 3 months. To bake the cookies, thaw the dough overnight in the refrigerator, coat with powdered sugar, and bake as directed.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-22806 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/Chocolate-Crinkle-Cookies-2_new.jpg?resize=682%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"A serving dish filled with chocolate crinkle cookies.\" width=\"682\" height=\"1024\" data-pin-description=\"These chocolate crinkle cookies are soft, cakey, slightly fudgy, and delicious too!

If the butter is too hot, you could end up with some scrambled eggs in your dough.<\/li>\n<li>It&#8217;s best to use room temperature eggs for these cookies. To bring your eggs to room temperature quickly, place them in a bowl of warm water for 5 to 10 minutes.<\/li>\n<li>Chill the dough for at least 2 hours. This is a sticky cookie dough so chilling it will make it much easier to work with!<\/li>\n<li>Use a cookie scoop &#8211; this will make it so much easier to scoop the dough and the cookies will all bake up uniform in size.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2>More Chocolate Cookies To Try!<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.livewellbakeoften.com\/chocolate-turtle-cookies\/\">Chocolate Turtle
