Ube Crinkle Cookies Recipe

Prep:5minCook:15min

Ube crinkle cookies are a beautiful, Filipino-American twist on the classic crinkle cookie! Ube is a purple yam frequently used in Southeast Asian desserts. It is naturally purple in color, with a subtle flavor that tastes like both pistachio and vanilla. These ube crinkle cookies get their vibrant color and flavor from both ube halaya jam and ube extract!

Special occasion

Doubled the recipe, made 15 medium and 15 small cookies. Two separate batches. Had to bake them a few minutes longer as they were still gooey at 12 minutes. Everyone enjoyed them. Was definitely better the next day. The photo shows how the medium cookies came out where I wasn’t generous on the powdered sugar and just coated them. The only thing I didn’t use was the purple food coloring. My McCormick Ube flavoring was already purple, which is what I used for the ube extract. If vacuum sealing these, it may be best to use the containers with the seal valve, as opposed to vacuum sealing a bag of cookies, especially not the day of, they get hard. 😔
