Quick Chocolate Crinkles

LAURIE's Note:

Yes, these are messy to make, but well worth it. Seems the kids like to make these probably because of the stickiness. My 17 yo can eat the whole batch!

I refrigerated the dough and it was not messy at all to roll the balls in the powdered sugar. I got 40 cookies out of my batch and they came out chewy and chocolately. They took 8-9 minutes in my oven. Very easy recipe for such a great cookie! Thanks for sharing! P.S. I used devil's food cake mix.

SO good and simple!!!
I followed another reviewers tip to refrigerate before rolling into balls--much less sticky.
Thanks!
