This Chocolate Crinkles Recipe is my hubby’s favorite! He can eat a batch of chocolate crinkles in not time flat. I’ve tried a few different recipes and some are pretty labor intensive, but this is an easier chocolate crinkle recipe that does not sacrifice flavor! These freeze real well too! An easy, pretty cookie to snag for holiday trays.
