Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 ½ cups sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¾ cup mini chocolate chips
  • 1 cup powdered sugar for topping

Instructions
 

  • Spray cookie sheets with non stick cooking spray or use silicone liners.
  • In a large bowl, beat cocoa powder, oil, and sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs and vanilla.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir into the chocolate mixture with the chocolate chips.
  • Cover dough or wrap in plastic wrap and chill for at least 4 hours.
  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Roll dough in balls (mine were about an ounce each). Then roll balls in powdered sugar.
  • Place at least 2 inches apart on prepared cookie sheets.
  • Bake at 350° for 12-14 minutes or until set and crackled.
  • Let cool on pans for 3-5 minutes, then remove to cooling racks to cool completely.

Notes

Make sure you chill the dough, or your cookies will just flatten out on the pan without cracking!
