Description

Delightful and rich Fudgy Red Velvet Crinkle Cookies that blend classic flavors with nostalgic warmth.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • ½ cup buttermilk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ cup powdered sugar for coating

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix granulated sugar and brown sugar, then add vegetable oil and blend until well combined.
  4. Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly. Add buttermilk and vanilla extract until fully combined.
  5. Gradually incorporate the dry mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined.
  6. Cover and chill the dough for at least 1 hour.
  7. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls, then coat in powdered sugar.
  8. Place on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between them. Bake for about 10-12 minutes or until crinkled but still soft in the center.
  9. Let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

For extra fudginess, do not overbake. You can freeze the dough and baked cookies effectively for long-term storage.
