Vegan Chocolate Crinkle Cookies

Recipe #291005 | 25 min | 10 min prep | SERVES 16 , 48 cookies (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: archi-meg

The tops crinkle when baked, creating a nice contrast between the dark chocolate and the white powdered sugar coating. Note that the dough gets very dense and is a little too difficult to mix by hand. From Vegetarian Times, around Christmas 1997, I think.
