Made the recipe exactly as written, and these are my favorite cookie I made this season! Love the simple recipe and the amazing taste and texture especially. It has everything I could want in a cookie. I already have a half batch of frozen dough in the freezer to cook off a couple as needed. Thank you so much for this one!

In reply to Sharon. 350. I’m not sure of slightly underbaked. Mine are very under at 13 minutes and I couldn’t take them off the pan in one piece to cool and firm up.

These cookies are ridiculously delicious!

I’m so not a baker, but you’d never know that by looking at the results. The recipe was fairly easy to follow They came out exactly as pictured.

I did end up unexpectedly chilling the dough overnight, and maybe that helped. I also used silicone pan liners, so no chance of them sticking. I skipped the crushed candy since I didn’t have any on hand, but it wasn’t missed at all. So delicious!

These are my new favorite cookies!

Wonderful recipe! However...the first time I made them they were FLAT! (Despite following the recipe to the T) Just made them again adding an additional 1/2 cup flour and they were perfect! Everyone agrees: these are addictive!

Just made the dough, and want to freeze the balls, just wondering if I put the sugar coating on before freezing, or when I take them out to bake? If after, do I thaw them out first or bake frozen?
Thanks!

In reply to Sarah McMinn.

If I want to use vegan butter, how much should I use. I’m guessing 1 stick?

Hello! I have made these multiple times and are a family favorite!
I was wondering if coconut sugar would work for the 2cups added to make the dough?
(I will still roll in regular/powdered). Thank you! Love all of your recipes!!

Ridiculously good!! Incredible cookies! I made them last year and this at holiday time and they are beyond delicious! Tasty and soft. Total crowd pleaser! This year I made one batch with 1 to 1 Gluten Free flour and it didn’t change a thing on taste or texture.

Have made this at least twice now and it is a hit everytime! Last time, I used my heart and stars cookie cutters and they held up well like regular sugar cookies! I was short 1/2 cup of apf so I subbed my homemade oat flour. I was nervous that they'd spread like crazy but they just got a little bloated-looking but held their shapes. I didn't dip them in sugar so not really the crinkle effect but cute as cut out cookies for sure! Thanks so much!

I just made the dough, it looks a little runny, not super firm.Not sure if that's how it should be or I did something wrong. I put it in the refrigerator to chill. If it still looks runny even after chilling, should I add some more flour? I'm totally new to baking. Thanks!

I love your recipes. I think of this as my ‘never fail’ recipe website. The Crinkles are no exception. My 14 year old and I made these yesterday and they were both easy and fantastic. They are his new favorite cookie. Anyone who has a preconceived notion on plant-based eating needs to come here. Great work!

I made these last year for my staff and I liked it so much that I made another batch to give to friends! I froze the extra and just took them out this week!! Can't even tell it has been a year. They're back on my Christmas gift baking list. Easy, just need the time to allow dough to chill. Now that I saw the suggestion to another commenter that applesauce can be used instead of oil, I'll try that next time.
For storing short-term - Would either a cookie tin or a plastic container work so that they retain their outer crisp and inner soft?
Thanks for sharing this. Merry Christmas!

I literally searched the internet for this exact recipe. Last year I took a screen shot of the ingredients and made a batch for my wife’s Christmas party (she owns a vegan restaurant) and they were a major hit. This year she asked if I’d make these for a catering event (100+). Now, I’m no vegan baker. I really don’t know the ins and outs of baking without eggs and butter, but son of a nutcracker these things are FOOL proof. First of all, my first batch last year and my test batch before the catering event were sort of gooey balls (even after chilling) but once rolled in the sugars, they came out perfect. Now my catering batch (multiplied the recipe by 6), I ran half a cup short of apple sauce, and completely forgot to add in baking powder and salt. The dough was dryer, but super super easier to roll, and the balls that were crumbly once rolled in the sugars turned out totally fine. They sort of stayed balls due to no baking powder so I just pressed on them lightly and POOF! Crinkles for daaaysss. AND they taste amazing!! Chewy and chocolatey and peppermint!! Seriously fool proof. Double roll peep, sugar and turn GENEROUS icing sugar roll. -True story from a regular kitchen mama busting her butt 4 days before Christmas.
