Notes
You can make chocolate crinkle cookies a day in advance. Once the dough is chilled, you can bake them right before serving. You can also make them ahead of time. Just make sure to chill them after they are finished. To keep your cookies moist, use a cookie sheet that keeps them at room temperature for about an hour. Once they're cold, they will stay crispy and delicious. So, go ahead and bake!
