Flourless Chocolate Fudge Crinkle Cookies
These low-fat chocolate flourless cookies are rich, chewy and ridiculously easy to make, with only a handful of ingredients. The texture is similar to that of meringue cookies or French macaroons, yet the centers are chewy and fudgy like brownies. Even better, they are a snap to make and no mixer is required!
