| For Christmas 2024, Grandson Ryan made a batch of the cookies that his Grandma Jan used to make. ❤ |
Ingredients:
1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup avocado oil
4 eggs
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 cups all purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon instant coffee powder (optional)
1/4 tespoon salt
1 cup powdered sugar
Method:
In a large bowl beat together the cocoa, sugar and oil with a wooden spoon or electric mixer on low speed. (The mixture should be shiny and gritty.)
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating for 30 seconds after each addition. Mix in the vanilla.
Sift together the flour, baking powder, coffee powder and salt. Add to the chocolate mixture and beat on low just until all of the ingredientsare combined. (Be careful not to overmix.
Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.
Preheat the oven to 350*. Line baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
Place the powdered sugar in a small bowl. Use a small cookie scoop to form 1 inch balls of dough. (Use your hands as needed to roll the dough into balls.) Drop several balls at a time into the powdered sugar. Roll the balls in the powdered sugar and place a few iches apart on the lined cookie sheets.
Bake for 10 to 13 minutes. Allow to cool on the cookie sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Makes about 4 dozen cookies. Store in an airtight container, in the refigerator, with sheets of waxed paper in between layers of cookies.
Notes: These soft & chewy cookies are a holiday favorite.
