I had not had these yummy cookies since I was a kid, (my mom's recipe) so the other day, I decided to make some for my men. They loved them, and Hubby very "subtly" hinted that these cookies could definitely come around again and again!
Chocolate Crinkles
2 cups sugar
4 eggs
1/2 cup oil
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 oz. unsweetened coco powder (1/2 cup)
3 cups all-purpose flour
Instructions:
Mix together the sugar, eggs, oil, and vanilla. Add the dry ingredients, and stir well. Refrigerate for several hours. Lightly grease a cookie sheet, and preheat oven to 350 degrees. Roll dough into balls; then roll each ball in powdered sugar and place on cookie sheet. Bake for about 10-12 minutes. Remove before they really look done, but a toothpick still comes out clean. This way they come out deliciously soft and moist. And the dough does freeze well. I put half of it in the freezer, and made more cookies another day. Still yummy.

Well, the cookies sound delish but I can't see your photo. I'm sure your hubby and children really liked them.
I gotta try these!
Just wondering. Do you roll these in powdered sugar before baking? They look SO good and I want to give them a try.
These are my favorite cookies. Thanks for posting the recipe. I can buy them in town but it's fun to make them around the Holiday time and wrap them up pretty. Christmas in July? ;)
Yes, you DO roll them in powdered sugar before putting them on the cookie sheet. Don't know how that important detail missed getting in the instructions! Thanks for letting me know! I've since edited/updated the post too.
Now I can see your photo. They look great!
I never made crinkles before! Will have to try this!
