Ingredients

1/2 cup Truvia® Sweet Complete® Brown With a Hint of Molasses

1/2 cup Truvia® Sweet Complete® Granulated All-Purpose Stevia Leaf Sweetener

1 1/3 cup All-Purpose Flour

1 teaspoon Baking Powder

1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda

2 1/2 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon

2 teaspoon Ground Ginger

1/2 teaspoon Ground Cloves

1/2 teaspoon Ground Nutmeg

1 teaspoon Kosher Salt

2 Large Eggs

1 tablespoon Molasses

1/2 cup Unsalted Butter (melted)

1/3 cup Corn Starch

1/4 cup Truvia Sweet Complete® Confectioners Stevia Leaf Sweetener

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) with racks in the upper and lower thirds. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, nutmeg, and kosher salt.

Step 3: In a large bowl, whisk the brown Truvia sweetener, granulated Truvia sweetener, eggs, and molasses until well combined. While whisking, slowly pour in the melted butter and mix thoroughly.

Step 4: Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir gently with a wooden spoon or spatula until just combined. Let the dough rest for about 10 minutes to firm up.

Step 5: In a small bowl, mix the corn starch and confectioners Truvia sweetener.

Step 6: Using a cookie scoop or spoon, scoop about 2 tablespoons of dough and roll into a ball. Roll the ball in the corn starch-sweetener mixture to coat well. Then pat a thin layer of the mixture on the top and sides of the ball to encourage crinkling.

Step 7: Arrange the coated dough balls on the prepared baking sheets at least 2 inches apart and gently press down each ball slightly.

Step 8: Bake for 14 to 16 minutes, rotating the sheets halfway through, until the cookies are puffed and golden. Enjoy warm or allow to cool completely on a wire rack.

Step 9: Store cooled cookies in a sealable container to keep them fresh.

Tips & Variations

For a more intense spice flavor, increase the ginger and cinnamon by 1/2 teaspoon each.

Use vegan butter and a flax egg to make these cookies dairy- and egg-free.

For an extra festive touch, sprinkle a pinch of coarse sugar on top before baking.

If you can’t find Truvia sweeteners, substitute with your preferred sweetener, adjusting quantities to taste.

FAQs

Can I use regular sugar instead of Truvia sweeteners?

Yes, you can substitute regular brown and granulated sugar in equal amounts. Keep in mind this will increase the calorie content and affect the sweetness slightly.

Why do I need to pat confectioners’ sweetener on the dough balls before baking?

This extra layer helps create the signature cracked surface of crinkle cookies by drying out the dough’s exterior as it bakes, resulting in beautiful cracks.
