What a difficult cookie to make!

Seriously.  I don’t even like crinkles but my friend R requested that I make one so I tried.  The first batch that I made was not successful because the icing sugar melted into the cookie making it damp.  The second batch I made was a little bit better but it still is not that good.

I did not taste it but my taste testers said the following:  (1) It tastes bitter and (2) It tasted like crinkles.  I wish I tasted it but as I have said, I don’t like crinkles that much.

I don’t know if I my failure at baking this cookie stemmed from me not choosing the right recipe to follow or it is a really difficult cookie to make for an amateur like me.

Reality

You can find the recipe here.  Let me know if you are able to successfully bake one.

Some of the changes I made are:

1.  I used Hershey’s Dark Chocolate Cocoa instead of Dutch cocoa.
2. I rolled the cookie balls in white sugar before coating them in confectioner’s sugar so that it will not come out damp.
