Chocolate Crinkle Cookies

Day 2

This is one of those simple bakes that takes about ten minutes and never fails to please everyone.
It is also one that I have been baking since I was a child and now know the recipe off by heart.
This cookie is so moist inside that it could class as a brownie but the outside is so crisp that it could class as the best cookie in the world, but to achieve this you have to make them right.

For this recipe you will need:

1. icing sugar - 3 tbsp (FOR DECORATION)
2. plain flour - 230 grams = 8 1/4 oz
3. unsweetened cocoa powder - 40 grams = 2 oz
4. salt - 1/4 tsp
5. butter - 115 grams = 4 oz (at room temperature)
6. cast sugar or soft brown depending on which one you prefer - 250 grams = 8 3/4 oz
7. 2 large eggs
8. vanilla essence - 1 teaspoon

When I first tried this recipe, I followed the instructions step by step and it worked fine but then today when I was in such a rush I threw it all in to a large mixing bowl, put my electric blender on high and pressed on and it worked just as well.

When the mixture has blended into a large bowl of thick chocolate goodness, take small sections (around the same size of the middle of your palm) and roll into smooth balls, then put the icing sugar in a bowl and roll your chocolate bowl into the dry icing sugar and then put on to a baking tray.

Preheat your oven to about 180 degrees and then place your chocolate balls into the oven for about 12-15 minutes. When they are cooked leave them to cool for about 5-10 minutes, as they are more tasty when they are still slightly warm. serve with an ice cold glass of milk and I can assure you everybody will be asking for seconds.
