- 1 cup White Granulated Sugar
- 6 tablespoons Vegetable Oil
- 6 tablespoons Unsweetened Cocoa Powder
- 2 tablespoons Instant Espresso
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1.25 cups All-Purpose Flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 cup Powdered Sugar (for rolling)
- In a large bowl, stir together the sugar and vegetable oil until well combined.
- Add the cocoa powder and instant espresso. Stir until the mixture is smooth and evenly blended.
- Add eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until everything is fully incorporated and the batter is glossy.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the chocolate mixture. Stir just until there are no more streaks of flour—do not overmix!
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Refrigerate the dough for at least 6 hours, or overnight, until firm.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place the powdered sugar in a small bowl.
- Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll each into a 1-inch ball using your hands.
- Gently roll each dough ball in the powdered sugar, making sure they’re fully coated.
- Place the balls 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops are crackled.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 2 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Chilling the dough is essential for achieving the perfect texture.
- These cookies can be stored in an airtight container for up to a week.
- You can add chocolate chips for extra chocolate flavor.
