Lunds & Byerlys Chocolate Krinkle Cookies
What it is
These are rich, dark chocolate cookies with a distinctive crackled surface. They are baked fresh in the bakery, offering a homemade quality. The cookies have a soft, chewy interior and a slightly crisp exterior. They are a classic treat, often associated with holiday baking but enjoyed year-round. The deep chocolate flavor comes from cocoa powder and chocolate chips, creating a satisfyingly sweet experience.
How people cook with it
These cookies are perfect for enjoying on their own or as a delightful accompaniment to beverages.
- Enjoy with a glass of milk

These cookies are ready to eat straight from the package. They require no preparation. For an enhanced experience, you can gently warm them in a low oven for a few minutes to bring out their soft texture and intensify the chocolate aroma. They are also excellent crumbled over ice cream or yogurt, or used as a base for mini cheesecakes. Their rich flavor makes them a versatile addition to any sweet occasion, from casual snacking to more formal gatherings.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to other chocolate cookies, these krinkle cookies are distinguished by their unique cracked surface, which results from rolling the dough in powdered sugar before baking. This process creates a beautiful visual appeal and adds a subtle sweetness that balances the intense chocolate flavor. Their texture is typically softer and chewier than a crisp chocolate wafer.
Who it is for
Home bakers and dessert lovers who appreciate classic, indulgent treats will enjoy these cookies.
How to keep the rest
To maintain their freshness and soft texture, store any remaining cookies in an airtight container at room temperature. Avoid exposing them to direct sunlight or excessive heat. If properly stored, they will remain delicious for several days, though they are best enjoyed within the first few days of opening.
