Chocolate crinkle cookies

I recently made these chocolate crinkle cookies, I'd made them in the past and remembered how delicious they were so I wanted to try them again to give to people at Christmas. The thing I like about these is that the taste and consistency is very similar to a brownie, but they look so much better! So if you want to impress these are perfect, they look and taste amazing and are really easy to make.

Here's the recipe I used:

175 gr dark chocolate

140 gr butter

10 gr baking powder

200 gr plain flour

2 eggs

150 gr sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

3 tbs icing sugar 

Melt the butter and chocolate in a bowl over simmering water. In a separate bowl whisk the eggs and sugar until pale. Add the chocolate and vanilla and combine. Then sift the flour and baking powder and mix in. Refrigerate for at least two hours, I left it overnight and cooked them in the morning.

When the mixture has cooled make walnut sized balls and roll in the icing sugar, put on a lined baking tray and flatten slightly with your fingers.

Cook at 170°C for about 10 minutes.

Ricetta:

175 gr cioccolato fondente

140 gr burro

10 gr lievito per dolci

200 gr farina 00

2 uova

150 gr zucchero

1 cucchiaino estratto di vaniglia

3 cucchiai di zucchero a velo

Far sciogliere a bagno maria la cioccolata e il burro. Nel frattempo in un'altra ciotola sbattere uova e zucchero fino ad ottenere un composto pallido. Aggiungere il cioccolato e poi la farina e il lievito setacciati. Mettere in frigo per almeno due ore. Io l'ho lasciato tutta la notte e li ho infornati la mattina. Quando il composto è raffreddato fare delle palline della dimensione di una noce e passarle nello zucchero a velo. Mettere le palline su una teglia rivestita di carta forno e schiacciarle leggermente con le dita. Infornare a 170°C per circa 10 minuti.
