I was looking for a recipe for chocolate crinkle cookies and my friend Rachel gave me this recipe. My son made a few batches of it and declared it the best cookie he’s ever had. “The absolute best?” I asked him. He said it was up there, maybe a few others tied, but it was really amazing. So I wanted to share it with you.
Just a note- I tried converting this to gluten free and egg free and I just got a sticky mess (but it’s quite possible that it was because I accidentally poured powdered sugar into the recipe instead of potato starch– they look alike!– and even though I tried to fish out the powdered sugar I must have missed some and that is possibly why it failed) so I’m not recommending those changes just yet, but I hope to tweak it and share a gluten free egg free recipe soon.
