Chocolate Crinkles

This is a delightfully chewy cookie, very much like a brownie. I adapted the classic recipe with the nuts and chocolate chips because those were garnishes we added to this cookie in Colonial Williamsburg, where I was a baker. The dough's ability to hold in the refrigerator is convenient during the holidays, when there is never enough time to whip up yet another batch of cookies!

The baking time is crucial in this recipe. You will have to literally tear a cookie apart to learn how to recognize when they are done.
