Ingredients

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 0.25 cup vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 eggs
• 0.5 cup powdered sugar

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and well combined.

Step 3

Add the eggs to the wet mixture, one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition.

Step 4

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until a thick dough forms. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until firm.

Step 5

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

Step 6

Place the powdered sugar in a small bowl. Scoop tablespoons of dough and roll them into balls. Roll each ball generously in powdered sugar until fully coated.

Step 7

Arrange the coated dough balls about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes, or until the cookies have puffed up and the tops have cracked.

Step 9

Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheets for 2–3 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
