Preparation
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Mixing and Baking
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined and a thick batter forms. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes.
- Place powdered sugar in a shallow bowl. Roll chilled dough into 1-inch balls, then generously coat each ball in powdered sugar.
- Place cookies 2 inches apart on prepared baking sheets and bake for 9-11 minutes, or until edges are set but centers are still slightly soft. Let cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of cinnamon to the dry ingredients. These cookies are best stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3-4 days.
