Description
Crinkle cookies, crispy on the outside, with a ‘sweet’ surprise, concealed on the inside, and then to add to the decadent flavor, covered in powdered sugar.
Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 3 cups Gluten Free 1-to-1 Baking Flour – Bob’s Red Mill
- 2 1/2 tsp. baking powder
- 1 1/2 tsp. baking soda
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 cup softened to room temperature unsalted butter (2 sticks)
- 1 1/2 tsp. vanilla essence
- 2 Extra large room-temperature eggs
- 1 cup powdered sugar + Additional powdered sugar for dusting (optional, but I prefer to use it, just a nice extra touch of sweetness as a special treat).
Instructions
- Heat oven to 325°F.
- Mix GF flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Beat the sugar, softened butter, and vanilla with an electric mixer until fluffy.
- Beat in eggs, one at a time, till smooth.
- Beat flour mixture into sugar mixture until well blended.
- If necessary, use a spatula to do the last bit of mixing to ensure all the flour is blended in well and you have a smooth ball of dough.
- Cover and let dough rest at room temperature for 15-20 minutes.
- Shape dough into balls (I managed to get 48 cookies out of this batch), and hide a Chocolate Truffle or bite-size Twix in the middle, as an extra little surprise.
- Use enough dough to cover each Truffle or Twix.
- What a fun way to surprise your guests when they bite into this moreish cookie.
- Place 1 cup powdered sugar in a bowl and roll each raw cookie in sugar.
- Pack out on a parchment cookie sheet and bake in preheated oven for ±18 minutes, or until the edges turned light brown.
- Let them cool slightly before moving them to a cooling rack and sprinkle/dust again with additional sugar.
- Now let it cool completely before you store them in an airtight container.
