Yesterday, I was asked to baby sit my two adorable, hyper cousins, ages 5 and 7. Alisse and Faith. Since I was caught – off guard with their arrival at my house. My stock of food supplies were almost out. I wanted to go out to do my grocery but these two are a handful. (I remember when I was with them in a grocery store, Alisse went on apple-biting spree). Although my Aunt brought food with them, they eat like a 20 year old would do. And they are hungry almost every hour. So when the snack time came, I had to search every cup boards I have to make them something to eat.
These two asked for something sweet.
Good thing is that, I have flour, butter, eggs, chocolates and such that are good for baking chocolate crinkles. This recipe I am sharing with you is easy, cheap and can be done with the littlest of effort and time. Just make sure that the flour or the ingredients are out of reach of children. The recipe is easy to follow. So yeah, enjoy baking!
