  1. I am so glad to find this recipe in it's entirety. I'd cut it out of BH&G a few years back and accidentally cut off the baking instructions so when I made them I had to guess. Anyway, this is the best Chocolate Crinkle cookie I have ever had. I make them without the nuts mixed in. Any chocoholic that hasn't tried this recipe is missing out!

I live in southeast Virginia and am an executive secretary for the Army. I love to cook and love food. I have a picky, picky 8-yr old, but he is a true blue chocoholic and budding cook! I have two beautiful granddaughters who visit often. I am teaching them to cook too. <br> <br> <br><img src=http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/Animation6.gif> <br> <br>I<img src=http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg>
