These Ube Crinkle Cookies are a trendy, beautiful purple dessert perfect for sharing. Follow Sasha’s intuitive steps to create these soft, chewy treats with a delightful crackle.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup ube halaya (purple yam jam)
  • 1 cup powdered sugar (for coating)

Instructions

  1. Whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl. Set this aside.
  2. In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until just combined.
  4. Mix in the ube halaya until the batter is uniformly purple.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Cover the dough and chill it for at least 2 hours. Chilling helps prevent spreading.
  7. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  8. Pour the powdered sugar into a shallow dish.
  9. Scoop the chilled dough into balls, about 1 tablespoon each.
  10. Roll each dough ball completely in the powdered sugar, coating it thoroughly.
  11. Place the coated balls about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
  12. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes. The edges should be set, but the center should look slightly soft.
  13. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before moving them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Ube halaya can be found in most Asian grocery stores.
  • For the best crinkle effect, make sure the dough is well-chilled before rolling in powdered sugar.
  • You can dust a second layer of powdered sugar on the cookies after they have cooled slightly for a thicker white coating.
