Chocolate crinkles are those cracked cookies that have become stars of snacks and parties: a cracked powdered sugar shell revealing a dark, fudgy center like a brownie. The visual contrast is spectacular, and the texture contrast is just as striking.
Good news: they are surprisingly easy to make. There is only one golden rule to follow, a well-chilled dough before baking, and a double coating of granulated sugar followed by powdered sugar for perfectly defined cracks. The ideal recipe to make with children.
