Gluten Free Chocolate Crinkle Cookies

This is an easy gluten free cookie recipe. Please do not make the same mistake I did and read the whole recipe first. I was rushing and thought I had this recipe under control… until I pulled the cookies out of the oven and realized I’d completely skipped the part about rolling the dough in powdered sugar. Everything had already baked — OOPS — so I improvised and dusted them after the fact. Surprisingly? Still delicious.
