Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar

Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment paper
  • Medium bowl
  • Large bowl
  • Whisk
  • Shallow bowl
  • Wire rack

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Combining and Baking
  1. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined and a thick dough forms.
  2. Place the powdered sugar in a shallow bowl; roll tablespoon-sized portions of dough into balls, then roll them thoroughly in the powdered sugar to coat completely.
  3. Arrange the coated dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each, and bake for 9-12 minutes until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly soft.
Cooling
  1. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For extra chocolatey flavor, add 1/2 cup of chocolate chips to the dough. These cookies are best stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3-4 days.
