Does anyone else find Christmas treats so much more enjoyable than "everyday" treats? Because I most certainly do.
As soon as the Christmas carols are playing in stores, you'll find me in the kitchen - apron on, Christmas carols playing, flour everywhere and Christmas cookies being made.
Each year I like to add a few new recipes to our rotation of old favourites, and this year, my new favourite may be these Chocolate Crinkle Cookies.
They're almost like a brownie, with crisp edges and a pillowy sweet powdered sugar topping.
Better still? Whilst they look impressive, they are SO easy to make - and gluten free too!
Let me share the recipe with you! >>
- Cocoa powdered
- Gluten free plain flour
- Cornflour/cornstarch
- 2 eggs
- Sugar
- Oil
- Baking powder
- Powdered sugar/icing sugar
The cookie dough does need to be chilled, however, you can save time by making these the night before and baking the cookies the next morning/day.
Here's the recipe!

Christmas Cookie Swaps don’t get sweeter than this! This brownie like Easy Chocolate Crinkle Cookie Recipe will become a new family favourite. Gluten free, nut free and so easy to make.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup (50g) cocoa powder
- 3/4 cup (150g) sugar
- 1/4 cup (60ml) oil (use a neutral tasting oil like coconut, vegetable or rice bran oil)
- 2 eggs
- 3/4 cup + 2 tbsp (105g) gluten free plain flour
- 1/4 cup (30g) cornflour/cornstarch
- 1 tsp baking powder
- Pinch of salt
- 1/3 cup icing sugar/powdered sugar, sifted
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, mix your cocoa, sugar, oil and eggs until combined.
- Add all of your remaining ingredients, except the icing sugar. Mixing until just combined.
- Chill your dough for 2 hours.
- Whilst your dough is chilling, preheat your oven to 180C/355F and line your cookie sheets with baking paper.
- Once chilled, scoop your cookie dough out with a spoon, rolling into a ball and tossing in the icing sugar until coated. Place your cookie balls onto your tray, flattening slightly.
- Continue until all of your mix is used up.
- Bake 10-12 minutes or until cracked and edges are cooked. Cookies will be soft but will firm up when cooled.
Notes:
These cookies can also be made not gluten free. Just use regular flour! :)
