Does anyone have a recipe for chocolate crinkle cookies?

These are chocolate cookies rolled in powdered sugar, they crack while baking. I've lost my recipe...

Thanks

 
Here's my T & T one - my son named them Sugar Brownies!

He was about 6 at the time, and said they tasted like brownies, so he called them sugar brownies!

Jesse's Sugar Brownies
2 cups (1 pound) butter
2 1/2 cups (1 lb 1 ½ oz.)sugar
3 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 teaspoon chocolate extract (optional)*
5 cups (1 lb) flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/4 cups (4 oz.) unsweetened cocoa powder **
1 teaspoon salt

Powdered sugar for rolling

*I just added it because I had it
**I used Pernigotti cocoa from Williams-Sonoma

In a bowl, cream butter and sugar. Add eggs, vanilla, and chocolate extract (if using); beat until light and fluffy.

In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking soda and cocoa powder. Stir flour mixture into butter mixture until well mixed. Chill dough in refrigerator.

Roll dough into 1” balls. Roll balls in powdered sugar and place on lightly greased cookie sheets. Bake at 350º for 7-10 minutes.

I've also rolled the dough into fairly skinny logs (about 1 1/4" in diameter), and froze them. Then when I wanted cookies, I just sliced the frozen logs about 1/3" thick, rolled the pieces in powdered sugar, then baked.

Note: The last time I made it, I used 3 extra-large eggs instead of 3 large eggs, and it seemed like the cookies stayed softer longer. I'm not sure if it was the eggs, or that I baked them for a shorter time or something. Enjoy!

I had an older recipe that included oil as an ingredient, but there was something I didn't care for in them, and I liked this recipe much better, so I threw the old one away smileys/smile.gif
