Chocolate Crinkles
Chill: 2 to 24 hours
Bake: 8 or 10 minutes per batch
Ingredients
- 4 eggs
- 1-3/4 cups granulated sugar
- 4 ounces unsweetened chocolate, melted and cooled slightly
- 1/2 cup cooking oil
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2/3 cup demerara sugar or turbinado sugar
Directions
1. In a large bowl, combine eggs, granulated sugar, melted chocolate, oil, baking powder, and vanilla. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until combined, scraping side of bowl occasionally. Gradually beat in as much of the flour as you can with the mixer. Using a wooden spoon, stir in any remaining flour. Divide dough in half. Cover and chill for 2 to 24 hours or until dough is easy to handle.
2. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly grease a large cookie sheet; set aside. Place demerara sugar in a small bowl. Shape one portion of dough into 1/2-inch balls. Shape the remaining portion of dough into 1-inch balls. Roll balls in demerara sugar to coat generously. Place balls 1 inch apart on prepared cookie sheet.
3. Bake small cookies in the preheated oven about 8 minutes or until edges are set and tops are dry. Bake large cookies about 10 minutes or until edges are set and tops are dry. Do not overbake cookies. Transfer cookies to a wire rack; let cool. (Cookies will deflate slightly upon cooling.) Makes about about 72 small and 36 large cookies.
4. To Store: Layer cookies between waxed paper in an airtight container; cover. Store at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months.

I absolutely agree with some of the above comments! It was a total disaster and a waste of ingredients. Pitched the whole thing. There is definately something wrong with this recipe. 1/2 cup of oil sounds like way too much but I followed it to the letter and it was terrible!
12/29/2009 08:10:26 PM Report AbuseI really enjoyed these cookies. I brought them to work and they were a huge success! The dough was sticky but in the end turned out to be yummy!
12/27/2009 02:59:05 PM Report AbuseThese were a big hit - they're like cookie-shaped brownies. Pretty easy. I used confectioner's sugar and made sure to roll the balls quickly - while the dough was still pretty cold so it didn't get too sticky in my hands.
12/22/2009 03:10:17 PM Report AbuseThese were not at all what I expected (and I followed the recipe exactly.) They are very good and my kids are loving them, but I was looking for a more dense, cakelike cookie that was a little heavier on the chocolate and puffed a little more. These really deflate, easily fall apart and the chocolate is a little light. Maybe I even have the wrong name for the cookie I am looking for!
12/22/2009 08:10:52 AM Report AbuseThis recipe was a total waste of ingredients. It was runnier than brownie batter, and I had to add 2 more cups of flour than the recipe called for. Then they didn't even taste chocolatey, even after adding double the melted chocolate called for too. I had to chill the dough 24 hrs. Obviously they baked funny, and they didn't taste that good when they came out of the oven either! I don't like the taste at all, although my boyfriend said he is willing to eat them, but they're not that good.
