One of my favorite cookie is a crinkle and I’m so excited to share this low carb version with you babes. It’s easy to make and also very easy to eat! I can’t wait for you to make it.
Low Carb Crinkle
What makes a cookie crinkle? The cracks form on the cookies because they are rolled in powdered sugar before baking. So when they come out of the over they have cracks on top which makes them Crinkle Cookies.
I have fond memories with Chocolate Crinkle Cookies– from Christmas to recess at school, it was always part of my childhood. When I was growing up in the Philippines, my family always vacationed up in a mountain town called Baguoi City where the weather is a little cooler during the holidays. During those trips, we made sure to stop by Good Shepherd– a religious convent that sells the best sweet treats, and buy Chocolate Crinkles for the trip. So when I eat these cookies, it takes me back to simpler and fun times with the family. Of course, I had to make these cookie low carb so I can eat more of them and special thanks to my aunt Stella for sharing her dough trick which you’ll see in the instructions below.
