Recipe: Chocolate Crinkles

I have been a chocolate crinkles fan for the longest time. Before, it was only me, now that i have a son (who is already 9 yrs. old by the way), the two of us love it.


The Chocolate Crinkles at a local baker near my old university,  "Becky's" and they make, my favorite chocolate crinkles.  Moist, chewy.... to die for! I soooooo love it!  I love their cakes too.
And then there is another local baker at a sidestreet bakery where my mom buys crinkles for my son, they also make it good, a close second to "Becky's", so my kid loves it too.


Today I'll feature a crinkles recipe I found on my friends fb page.  I don't know if it'll equal what my favorite bakers make but for those of you who are looking for a recipe, here's something to get you started.
