Ube Crinkle Cookies

With its striking color and a unique nutty vanilla flavor profile, ube has taken over the world. Upgrade your average crinkle cookie this Christmas with ube extract and ube halaya, a popular Filipino pudding made with ube and condensed milk.

Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 c. (210 g.) all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 1/2 c. (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted, cooled
  • 1/4 c. (55 g.) light brown sugar, packed
  • 1 1/2 c. (300 g.) granulated sugar, divided
  • 1/2 c. (150 g.) ube halaya
  • 3 tsp. ube extract, such as McCormick
  • 1 c. (115 g.) confectioners' sugar

Direction

  1. Preheat oven to 350°. In a medium bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, and salt until combined.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk egg, butter, brown sugar, and 1/2 cup granulated sugar. Add ube halaya and ube extract and whisk until incorporated.
  3. Add dry ingredients to ube mixture. Using a flexible spatula, mix until dry ingredients are incorporated and dough is shiny, about 30 seconds.
  4. Cover bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 1 hour or up to 1 day.
  5. In 2 separate shallow bowls, place confectioners' sugar and remaining 1 cup granulated sugar. Scoop 20 (2-tablespoon; 35-gram) portions and roll dough into balls. Working with a few at a time, roll in granulated sugar, then in confectioners' sugar. Arrange 10 balls between 2 parchment-lined sheets (5 each), spacing 2" apart.
  6. Bake cookies until edges begin to set but center is still slightly soft, 9 to 11 minutes.
  7. Let cool 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely. Repeat with remaining dough.
