12 Days of Christmas-Chocolate Crinkles
I used to make these 12 Days of Christmas-Chocolate Crinkles as a kid and I called them “molten lava cookies”. They are cool to watch bake in the oven as they transform from a round ball to a flattened cookie with great cracks and crevices.
Not only do they look good but they taste divine with their fudgy brownie-like interior. I have not made these for so many years and so happy I did again this year.
These cookies make such a pretty show to any cookie platter or box. They are easy to make too!!
