These Double Chocolate Crinkle Cookies are so good that you will always want to make these whenever you crave for brownies. After trying this fool-proof recipe, you will never look for another recipe for chocolate cookies. This one will be your ultimate recipe to make your guests happy!

Do you like brownies? Well, who doesn't? Would you like to have brownies in the form of cookies this time?
These Brownie Crinkle Cookies are like mini pieces of an enormous slice of a heavenly brownie. The tempting chocolaty flavor of brownie is compressed into these cookies, which makes them unique and even more tempting. These are way different than regular chocolate cookies.
These cookies are not chewy, they are soft and a little moist just like brownies. These are minimized brownies, but you can be sure that your joy doubles! You can overcome melancholy snacking on these mini double chocolate crinkles!

It’s so easy to make these cookies, but you need some patience since you need to wait the cookie batter in the refrigerator at least for 4 hours. It’s better if you make it overnight and wait until morning. Don’t get afraid when you see that the batter is so wet, it gets stiff and easy to shape as it is chilled.
Crackle top of these brownie cookies comes from icing sugar. It is optional to make this topping, but I do love those white crackles on them. Don’t you think they look so cute this way?
Make mini balls from the batter and place them in the baking pan 2 inches apart since they rise very well and flatten when baking. You don’t need to use all the batter at one time, you can keep it in the refrigerator for a few days and bake when needed.

Can the vanilla powder be substituted by vanilla essence..? And adding the vanilla essence in the egg mixture..?
Zerrin says
Yes, it can be substituted by vanilla essence and added in the egg mixture.

Are you absolutely certain "½ cup icing sugar" is to be used in the cookie dough? I blindly followed the recipe and the result turned up extremely dry and flaky. Did not work out at all.......

You're supposed to roll the cookies in the icing sugar before baking, you don't put the sugar into the batter
Christine says
The recipe definitely calls for icing sugar in the brownies should this be granulated sugar in the mix and then roll in icing sugar? Am hoping to try these today. They sound delicious.
Yusuf says
Used icing sugar(powdered sugar) both in the dough mix and when rolling.
Gail says
Can you give the amount of butter and chocolate in "cups" or "ounces".
Zerrin says
3 1/2 ounce butter and 1 cup chocolate chips.
Hester @ Alchemy in the Kitchen says
These cookies look delicious - I think I'll have to get my little nieces to help me make these. They will probably help me eat them too.
Karin Anderson says
Great idea to make cookies from brownie batter!
Interesting, that you mention that refrigerating the dough overnight enhances the taste of the cookies. I retard my bread doughs always in the fridge - with great results. I heard about the benefits of treating cookie batter the same way from NY Times "World's Best Chocolate Cookies". They taste best after 3 days of refrigerating the dough. And they are really good!
