Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cup Vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
Instructions
In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the granulated sugar, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Mix well until the mixture looks smooth and glossy.
Add the eggs to the sugar mixture one at a time, beating well after each addition.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Mix until a thick dough forms. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (or overnight) to firm up the dough.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of the chilled dough and roll them into balls using your hands.
Roll each ball generously in powdered sugar, ensuring it is fully coated. Place the coated balls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the tops are crackled and the cookies are just set at the edges.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
