Chocolate Crinkle Cookies

Crinkle Cookies are one of my favorite cookies – so tasty, and cute too! They are easy enough to make and are festive for any occasion or just for fun. Chocolate baked goods are my go-to desserts, and this one hits the spot.

Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients.
