Chocolate crinkle cookies:
1. In a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, cocoa powder, and oil until smooth.
2. Beat in the eggs one by one, then mix in the vanilla extract until the ingredients are combined.
3. In another medium bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, and salt. Add this flour mixture to the cocoa mixture and mix with an electric mixer on low speed, then knead until the ingredients are combined into a smooth mass.
4. Cover the prepared chocolate cookie dough with cling film and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
5. When the dough has chilled, preheat the oven to 350°F / 175°C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
6. Scoop out the chilled dough with a spoon and roll it into 2-3 cm balls with your hands.
7. Roll the chocolate cookie balls in powdered sugar and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.
Baking chocolate crinkle cookies:
1. Bake the cookies for 10 to 12 minutes.
For the baked cookies, let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Tips for making chocolate cookies
- To avoid the most common mistake, measure your flour correctly. It’s best to use a scale, but if you don’t have one, fluff the flour with a spoon, sprinkle it into your measuring cup, and level it off with a knife.
- For optimal results, make the dough a day ahead, so it has enough time to set up and becomes easier to roll.
- Have you tried making these cookies with olive oil instead of vegetable oil? It’s my personal favorite; you should give it a try!
- If you’re not a fan of powdered sugar, roll the cookies in sanding sugar for some visual interest. Plus, there’s no chance of inhaling sugar when you take a bite.
