Preparation Steps

• In a bowl, mix together flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
• In another bowl, whisk cocoa powder, sugar, and vegetable oil. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
• Gradually mix dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until a dough forms.
• Cover dough and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
• Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Roll dough into 1-inch balls, coat in powdered sugar, and place on the prepared baking sheets.
• Bake for 10-12 minutes in the preheated oven, until cookies have spread and cracked on top.
• Let cool on the baking sheets before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
