Ingredients

  • ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ¼ cup dark cocoa powder
  • ¼ cup vegetable oil
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 pieces eggs
  • 1 cup all purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • cup icing sugar (confectioners sugar) for coating

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, mix together cocoa, vegetable oil and white sugar. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla. Mix the flour, baking powder and salt into the cocoa mixture. Cover dough, and chill for at least 2 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 175° C. Line baking sheet with parchment paper. Roll dough into one inch balls. Coat each ball in confectioners sugar before placing onto prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes. Cool into wire racks before serving.

Notes

  • You could chill the dough in freezer for about 20 minutes if you do not want to wait that long, just like me!
  • This is not very sweet, so if you prefer sweeter cookies, try adding about 1/4 cup sugar to the cocoa mixture.
