Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 1 cup cocoa powder unsweetened
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 4 egg
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup powdered sugar

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a microwave safe bowl microwave the dark chocolate chips in 30 second increments until fully melted when stirred (takes me 2 rounds of microwaving).
  2. In a stand mixer add the cocoa powder, melted chocolate, white sugar, and vegetable oil on medium speed.
  3. Add in the vanilla and each egg once fully incorporated.
  4. Add the flour, baking powder, and salt on low until just combined.
  5. Place the bowl in the freezer for 1 hour (minimum) to firm up.
  6. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  7. Spray your cookie sheets well with canola oil spray or line with parchment paper.
  8. Using a small cookie scoop, scoop the dough into the bowl of powdered sugar and roll in the powdered sugar completely.
  9. Lightly roll into a ball shape with your hands then roll through powdered sugar again before putting it on the cookie sheet.
  10. Bake in preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes on ONE sheet at a time in the top third of your oven (this helps to ensure the signature crackled tops).
  11. Once out of the oven remove the cookies from the parchment paper in the first couple of minutes. They can stick to the paper very easily.
