    The beauty of crinkle cookies is that the dough puffs up and cracks on top, giving you that soft, chewy inside with a slightly crispy crust.

    Servings and Ingredients

    Ingredients
    Serves 55
    QuantityIngredientAdd
    1 c. Hy-Vee all-purpose flour
    ½ c. Hy-Vee baking cocoa
    1 tsp. Hy-Vee baking powder
    ½ tsp. Hy-Vee salt
    ¼ tsp. Hy-Vee baking soda
    ¼ c. Hy-Vee butter
    4 oz. bittersweet chocolate, chopped
    ⅔ c. plus 1/3 cup Hy-Vee granulated sugar, divided
    ⅔ c. packed Hy-Vee brown sugar
    1 tsp. Hy-Vee vanilla extract
    3 Hy-Vee large eggs
    Hy-Vee vegetable shortening, for greasing
    ⅓ c. Hy-Vee powdered sugar

    Directions

    1. In a small bowl, stir together flour, cocoa, baking powder, salt and baking soda. Set aside.
    2. In a medium saucepan, melt butter and bittersweet chocolate, stirring frequently, over low heat until chocolate melts and mixture is smooth; cool slightly. Stir in 2/3 cup granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla until combined. Add eggs one at a time, beating with a wooden spoon after each addition. Stir in flour mixture just until combined. Cover and chill dough for 2 hours or until easy to handle.
    3. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Lightly grease cookie sheets; set aside. Using half the dough at a time, shape dough into 1-inch balls. Roll in remaining 1/3 cup granulated sugar, then in powdered sugar, coating generously. Place cookies 2 inches apart on prepared cookie sheet. Bake about 12 minutes or until edges are just set but centers are still soft. Cool on cookie sheet for 1 minute. Transfer to wire racks and cool.
