If there’s one cookie that screams holiday baking, it’s Chocolate Crinkle Cookies. Sticky dough, crackly tops, and that perfect chewy, cake-like bite. I've been making this recipe for years and recently tested (with great success!) a gluten-free version by swapping out the flour for gluten-free all-purpose flour. Whether you make the original or the gluten-free version, these cookies are sure to be a hit for holiday parties, cookie swaps or just enjoying on a cozy holiday night.
