Can I freeze chocolate crinkle cookies?
Freshly baked crinkle cookies can be stored at room temperature in an airtight container for four to five days. Alternatively, you can freeze baked cookies in a single layer, or separated by parchment, for three to four weeks. Chocolate crinkle dough can be formed into balls and frozen in a single layer on a baking sheet. When they’re frozen solid, store them in an airtight container in the freezer for three months. When you’re ready to bake, let thaw for 30 minutes, roll in confectioner’s sugar and bake following the directions.
How can I adjust this crinkle cookie recipe?
Add extra texture to classic chocolate crinkle cookies by mixing in one cup of finely chopped dried cherries or one cup of chocolate chips (white, milk or dark). Add some extra holiday flair by including 1 teaspoon of peppermint extract and 1/2 cup of crushed peppermints or candy canes. For an espresso kick, replace the water with strong coffee (cooled).
