If using salted butter, please adjust the amount of salt to avoid the cookies being too salty<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>sugars<\/strong>\u2014you will need both granulated sugar and icing sugar (also called powdered sugar)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>eggs<\/strong>\u2014I bake with large eggs. Avoid using smaller or larger eggs as this may affect the texture and spread of the cookies<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>salt<\/strong>\u2014I bake with Diamond Crystal Fine Kosher salt. If using regular table salt, please add half the amount or the cookies may be too salty<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>flour<\/strong>\u2014I used bleached all-purpose flour though unbleached will work fine<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>cocoa powder<\/strong>\u2014I always bake with Dutch-processed cocoa powder. For this recipe, I used Cacao Barry Extra Brute cocoa powder, which has a reddish tint<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>chocolate<\/strong>\u2014use a dark chocolate that is not too sweet and with a high percent of cocoa solids (around 70 %). Do not use chocolate chips as they don't melt well and they may make the cookies too sweet<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>leavening<\/strong>\u2014the leavening is crucial in this recipe and you will need baking powder. The cracking effect of these cookies comes from the surface drying as they bake before the leavening starts to act.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>nuts<\/strong>\u2014I love brownies with walnuts and so added chopped walnuts to the chocolate cookie dough. Do not skip the nuts because the cookies may spread more without them.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Please see the recipe card for the exact ingredients and quantities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"substitutions-and-variations\"   class=\"wp-block-heading\">Substitutions and Variations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Sugars<\/strong>\u2014you can roll the scoops of cookie dough in granulated sugar, then icing sugar, or you can skip the granulated sugar and simply roll in powdered sugar. The crinkle cookies rolled in both granulated and icing sugar have a more consistent look and they are more stable upon storage. The surface of crackle cookies rolled in straight icing sugar may absorb or dissolve the icing sugar in places, creating an uneven and less attractive finish<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Nuts<\/strong>\u2014I love to add walnuts to brownies and so these crinkle cookies are made with chopped toasted walnuts. You can replace them with chopped almonds or pistachios. Note that if you want to omit the nuts, the cookies may spread more.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cocoa powder<\/strong>\u2014please use Dutch-processed cocoa powder, which has a higher pH than \"natural\" cocoa. If you use natural cocoa powder, this will affect the leavening, causing the baking powder to react prematurely, which may affect the spread and rise of the cookies when they bake.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"how-to-make-perfect-chocolate-crinkle-cookies\"   class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Make Perfect Chocolate Crinkle Cookies<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1600\" data-pin-description=\"Learn how to make the best chocolate crinkle cookies with this easy recipe.

Granulated sugar is hygroscopic and will draw moisture out of the surface of the cookie dough, essentially creating a dry layer under the powdered sugar coating that is more prone to cracking.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1610723494152\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Why did my crackle cookies spread so much?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Like with most recipes, if these <a href=\"https:\/\/bakeschool.com\/flat-cookies\/\">cookies spread too much in the oven<\/a>, it could mean that your cookie dough was too warm. Make sure you chill the dough well, especially which this recipe which yields a very soft dough. The cold dough will take longer to spread in the oven, so hopefully it will dry out and crack before it has a chance to spread much.<br\/>Another option could be that you incorporated too much air in the cookie dough in the first steps of the <a href=\"https:\/\/bakeschool.com\/baking-basics-mixing-methods\/\">creaming method<\/a>. With cake batters, you really want to incorporate a lot of air when mixing the butter, sugar, and eggs, to make a lighter, more fluffy cake. With cookies, you don't want to do this. Mix the ingredients well so that they are fully incorporate but don't mix for so long that you've incorporated a ton of air.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1610723871869\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">What type of chocolate can I use?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">This recipe calls for a semisweet chocolate or bittersweet chocolate, roughly 70% cocoa content is perfect here. You don't want to use milk chocolate which has more fat and more sugar. That will most likely cause the cookies to spread. Remember to use the <a href=\"https:\/\/bakeschool.com\/everything-you-need-to-know-about-the-types-of-chocolate-for-baking\/\">best dark chocolate for baking<\/a> because it is providing both flavour, structure, and texture to the recipe.<br\/>I like to bake with Cacao Barry Ocoa 70% dark chocolate, which is a professional quality dark chocolate that you can buy in IGA grocery stores in Quebec and online from Vanilla Food Company. It comes in 1 kilo resealable bags as pistoles (which resemble giant flattened chocolate chips) which make most baking projects super easy because you don\u2019t even have to chop it to melt it! Ocoa is not overly sweet which means you aren\u2019t adding too much extra sugar when you bake with it. Ocoa has a deeper, bittersweet chocolate flavour that works well in baked goods.<\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"other-crinkle-cookie-recipes\"   class=\"wp-block-heading\">Other Crinkle Cookie Recipes <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you like <a href=\"\/category\/crinkle-cookie-recipes\/\">crinkle cookies<\/a>, be sure to check out these <a href=\"https:\/\/bakeschool.com\/lemon-crackle-cookies\/\">lemon ricotta cookies<\/a> and these <a href=\"https:\/\/bakeschool.com\/sparkly-molasses-cookies\/\">chewy molasses cookies<\/a> (not technically a crinkle cookie but they crack perfectly as they cool).

If using regular table salt, add half the amount or the recipe may be too salty!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dark chocolate<\/strong>\u2014I used Cacao Barry Ocoa 70 % dark chocolate. Please use a chocolate with a high percentage of cocoa that is not too sweet<\/li>\n<li><strong>Nuts<\/strong>\u2014I love to add walnuts to brownies and so these crinkle cookies are made with chopped toasted walnuts. You can replace them with chopped almonds or pistachios. Note that if you want to omit the nuts, the cookies may spread more.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cocoa powder<\/strong>\u2014please use Dutch-processed cocoa powder, which has a higher pH than \"natural\" cocoa. If you use natural cocoa powder, this will affect the leavening, causing the baking powder to react prematurely, which may affect the spread and rise of the cookies when they bake.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Make sure to roll the balls of cookie dough in granulated sugar first before coating them in icing sugar<\/strong> (powdered sugar). The granulated sugar will help absorb the moisture on the surface of the cookies, drying them out and helping the cookies crack in the oven when they are baked.<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div><\/div>\n<div
