Chocolate Crinkle Cookies (gluten free & dairy free)

My chocolate crinkle cookies are a delicious cross between a cookie and a brownie, covered in icing sugar which creates a lovely crackly effect once baked. They are so easy to make, gluten free, dairy free and taste amazing. If you do make this recipe I’d love to see, don’t forget to tag me in your photos over on social media.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which flour do you use to make the brownies? 

For this recipe, and the majority of my bakes, I use the FREEE Gluten Free Plain Flour which works really well in gluten free baking. I also add xanthan gum as this helps to bind the cookies together and prevents them from crumbling.

How long will the cookies last?

The cookies will last for around 4 days in an airtight container, however are always best eaten on the first day.
