Indulge in our festive Chocolate Crinkle Cookies, rich with cocoa and coated in powdered sugar for a delightful dessert.
Ingredients:
  • 1 cup natural unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 1/2 cups white granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon espresso powder (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
Instructions:
  • Combine cocoa powder, white sugar, and vegetable oil in a mixing bowl. Use an electric mixer with the paddle attachment or a wooden spoon to beat until a shiny, gritty, black dough forms.
  • Stir in the eggs one by one, mixing for 30 seconds after each addition, then incorporate the vanilla, ensuring it is well blended.
  • Combine flour, baking powder, salt, and espresso powder in a bowl, whisk until well blended.
  • Blend the dry ingredients into the cocoa-oil mix on low speed just until combined. Avoid overmixing.
  • Wrap the dough with plastic wrap and let it chill in the fridge for at least four hours, or ideally overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside. Place the powdered sugar in a wide bowl.
  • Shape the cookies: Grab a rounded teaspoon to portion out clumps of the chilled dough, then roll them into 1-inch (2.5 cm) balls with your hands. Drop several balls at once into the powdered sugar. Because the dough is sticky, it's easier to work in smaller batches. Coat the balls with powdered sugar and arrange them a few inches apart on the cookie sheets, aiming for 12 to 16 on each sheet.
  • Baking: Bake at 350°F for 10-13 minutes. Cool on baking sheets briefly before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with remaining batter. Enjoy the recipe? Leave a comment and rate it below!
