Ingredients

Scale

Wet Ingredients

  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • ⅓ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Coating

  • ½ cup powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prepare for baking.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar and vegetable oil until well combined and slightly fluffy, creating a smooth base for the dough.
  3. Add Eggs and Vanilla: Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition to fully incorporate them. Stir in the vanilla extract to enhance the flavor.
  4. Sift Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt to ensure even distribution and a light texture.
  5. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined to form a soft dough. Avoid overmixing to keep the cookies tender.
  6. Shape Cookies: Roll the dough into 1-inch balls with your hands for uniform size and shape.
  7. Coat with Powdered Sugar: Generously coat each dough ball in powdered sugar, which will create the signature crinkled appearance during baking.
  8. Arrange and Bake: Place the coated cookie balls on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each. Bake for 10-12 minutes until the cookies puff up and develop beautiful crinkles.
  9. Cool: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely, ensuring they set properly.

Notes

  • Do not overmix the batter to keep the texture soft and tender.
  • Using freshly powdered sugar helps achieve better coating and crinkle effect.
  • Space the cookies adequately on the baking sheet to prevent merging during baking.
  • These cookies freeze well; store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
  • For a richer flavor, try adding a pinch of instant espresso powder to the dry ingredients.
