Recipe: The Better Crinkles

The Better Crinkles

Although I am very tempted to say that these crinkles are the "BEST", I believe people could still have a different take on what is truly the best. So, as I would say it, these crinkles are the "better" ones for three good reasons. First, it is so easy to make. An electric mixer would help, but I have made these with just a hand wire whisk several times already and it still came out well. Aside from that, all ingredients could be found in any bakery supply dealer, if not in local groceries. Plus, this recipe wouldn't require you to chill the cookie batter before shaping, as most recipes would. Secondly, the cost is relatively inexpensive. And you know what's coming next of course, the taste! Absolutely heavenly dark chocolate with a melt in your mouth texture makes it hands down, the 'better' crinkle.
