Ingredients
- 1 cup Cocoa powder
- 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup Vegetable oil
- 4 Large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour blend
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cocoa powder, granulated sugar, and vegetable oil. Mix well until combined and smooth.
Step 2
Add the eggs one at a time to the cocoa mixture, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
Step 4
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined and a dough forms.
Step 5
Cover the dough with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight. This helps the dough firm up and makes it easier to handle.
Step 6
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 7
Use a tablespoon to scoop out the chilled dough and roll it into balls about 1 inch in diameter.
Step 8
Roll each dough ball in powdered sugar until completely covered.
Step 9
Place the sugar-coated dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 10
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the cookies are set and cracked on top.
Step 11
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 12
Enjoy these fudgy, gluten-free chocolate delights with a glass of milk or your favorite dairy-free alternative!
