Chocolate Crinkle Cookies

Crunchy sweet on the outside, chewy chocolatey on the inside, that's how I will describe the yummiest helpings I had of these sinful cookies. I'm sure most of you have tried it before. Many bakeries tried to sell on some of these babies and you end up disappointed as a lot of them are dry, and floury-tasting. I've tried it before and I couldn't express enough how sad those cookies are. When I finally went and worked abroad, baking became my hobby and I made it my personal quest to research and recreate the best memories I had with this cookie. The texture is similar to that of a brownie, crunchy on the outside with that chocolatey chewy and fudgy goodness on the inside. I hope you get to try these, I'm yet to perfect it, but for now, I just made the best batch I've ever tasted...! :)
