Notes
Storage:
Store chocolate crinkle cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3-4 days. For longer storage, you can freeze the baked cookies for up to 3 months. Let them thaw at room temperature before serving.
Tips:
- Chill the Dough: Ensure the dough is chilled for at least 1 hour to make it easier to handle and achieve the best crackled appearance.
- Generous Sugar Coating: Roll the dough balls thoroughly in powdered sugar for a beautiful contrast between the dark chocolate and the sugar coating.
- Uniform Size: Use a cookie scoop to create evenly sized cookies, ensuring they bake consistently.
- Don’t Overbake: Bake just until the edges are set and the tops are crackled, but the centers remain soft for a fudgy texture.
