How to Make Chocolate Crinkles
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 cups granulated sugar, ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, and 1 cup vegetable oil until combined.
- Beat in 4 large eggs one at a time, then stir in 2 teaspoons vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 4 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1 teaspoon salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients (flour mixture) to the wet ingredients (cocoa mixture), mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the dough to firm up.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Roll the chilled dough into 1-inch balls.
- Generously coat each ball in powdered sugar, ensuring it's fully covered. Gently roll the sugared balls back and forth in your hands to ensure an even coating.
- Place the sugared dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly soft. Avoid overbaking.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for at least 1 minute before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
