Ingredients

• 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup Extra-virgin olive oil
• 0.5 cup Red wine
• 1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary (finely chopped)
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 cup Powdered sugar (for dusting, optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk to blend and set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, olive oil, red wine, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and fully incorporated.

Step 4

Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a spatula. Mix until a soft, cohesive dough forms.

Step 5

Add the finely chopped rosemary to the dough and gently knead it in until evenly distributed.

Step 6

Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, portion the dough into 1-inch balls and place them about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.

Step 7

Flatten each ball slightly with the back of a spoon or your fingers to create an even surface.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the cookies are set.

Step 9

Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Once cooled, optionally dust the cookies with powdered sugar for a decorative touch and additional sweetness.
