this recipe seriously is a treasure of mine. these cookies are such a treat and i can't wait to share the recipe with you. make them and you won't regret it.
chocolate crinkle cookies
2 cups sugar
3/4 cup vegetable oil
3/4 cup cocoa
3/4 cup cocoa
4 eggs
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 1/3 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
confectioners' sugar
in a large mixer bowl combine sugar and oil. add cocoa; blend well. beat in eggs and vanilla. combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a separate bowl. add to cocoa mixture blending well. cover; chill at least 6 hours* in the refrigerator.
*or 1-2 hours in the freezer - the dough needs to be firm so you can roll them into balls.
heat oven to 350 degrees. shape dough into 1 inch balls and roll into confectioners' sugar. place 2 inches apart on a greased cookie sheet. bake 12 to 14 minutes or until almost no indentation remains when touched. remove from cookie sheet; cool on wire rack.
oh man. i want one (ten) right now. bake and munch them up. and if you're nice you'll share with friends.
