Chocolate Crinkle Cookies
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder , (unsweetened)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil, (or canola, or light olive oil)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup confectioners sugar
Instructions
-
In a mixing bowl, combine sugar, cocoa powder, oil, vanilla extract and eggs. Whisk until the mixture is smooth.
-
In a separate bowl, combine flour together, baking powder and salt.
-
Add the flour mixture to the cocoa mixture and stir to combine.
-
Cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours and up to overnight.
-
Preheat the oven to 350F. Scoop dough with a mini ice cream scoop for even portioning into 20 cookies then roll cookie dough into even-sized balls (it’s easier to roll with wet hands) and generously roll each into powdered sugar.
-
Place cookies on a baking sheet, being sure to leave space between each of the cookies. Bake for 10-12 minutes, depending on the size of the cookies. Cookies will come out soft but will harden as they cool down.
-
Allow cookies to slightly cool. Then, move them to a wire rack to fully cool down.
