chocolate crinkles-christmasLong a cookie jar favourite, these soft, fudge-like cookies puff up while baking creating a crinkled appearance and a striking contrast between the exposed inner dark chocolate cookie dough and the outside coating of white confectioners’ sugar. Super delicious, and a pretty presentation for the holidays or any time of year.
