Ingredients

  • 2 1/3 cups flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup oil canola or vegetable (I use canola)
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 4 eggs
  • 1/3-1/2 cup powdered sugar

Instructions

  • In a small bowl combine the flour, baking powder and salt; set aside.
  • Beat the oil and sugar together in a large bowl, add the cocoa and mix until well blended. Beat in the eggs and sugar. Gradually add the flour mixture and mix until completely combined.
  • Cover and refrigerate until firm, 4-6 hours or overnight.
  • Heat oven to 350°. Spray cookie sheets with cooking spray or line with parchement paper.
  • Place powdered sugar in a small bowl. Shape dough into 1 inch balls and roll in powdered sugar until well coated. Place 2 inches apart on prepared cookie sheets.
  • Bake 11-13 minutes until tops are cracked and almost no indentation remains when touched. Cool on cookie sheets for 2 minutes before cooling on wire rack.
