How to Make Chewy Choco Butternut Crinkles?

To make the chocolate cookie mixture, add all the dry ingredients in a large bowl and the wet ingredients in a separate bowl. Combine the wet ingredients to the dry and mix well using a wooden spatula. Cover with glad wrap and let chill in the fridge for 1 to 2 hours. To make the coating, add flour and melted butter together, then add the remaining ingredients, mix until well combined. Add orange food coloring until you are happy with the color. Once the chocolate cookie mixture is chilled, start preheating the oven to 380 degrees F (180 degrees C) while rolling the mixture into balls. Roll the chocolate balls into the coating mixture. Repeat the step until all the mixture is finished. Bake them for 10 to 12 minutes. I prefer to bake them for 10 minutes only for a chewy texture.

• Use wooden spoon to mix the chocolate crinkle mixture, as it will get harden as you combine the dry and wet ingredients together.
• It is recommended to chill the mixture into the fridge for 1 to 2 hours so that the crinkles for a rounded top finish. Otherwise, crinkles will be flat when baked.
