Chocolate Crinkle Cookies, again

These were chocolate crinkle cookies, again!

Who cares if I make classic Christmas holiday cookies in spring? At least J doesn't. This time I made these cookies with natural cocoa powder, instead of Dutch-processed cocoa powder that I used last time to see the difference that Cook's Illustrated mentioned. So, natural cocoa powder will bring to the cookies "straightforward chocolate flavor with some acidity, light color, drier crumb and less spread;" Dutch-processed will "fruity, bitter chocolate flavor with dark color and moister, fudgier crumb." Let's see!
The cookies were fantastic!! Difference? I am not sure... I could only tell both this time and last time were very chocolate-y, caky inside, tender like melt-in-mouth and super delicious!
