Homemade Crinkle Cookies

This recipe only makes 12 small crinkle cookies. I made this because it is my favorite cookie. I made this on my own without any help. Crinkles don't include any butter so it has less calories. You can double the recipe if you like.

Tools:

1-2 baking trays

Ice cream scoop or tablespoon

Mixing bowls

Parchment paper

Whisker and spatula

Ingredients:

1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/2 cup white granulated sugar

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

1 large egg

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1/2 cup all purpose or plain flour

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons confectioner sugar (for coating)

Mix the cocoa powder, white sugar and vegetable oil in a medium-sized bowl. Beat in the egg, until it is fully incorporated. Mix in the vanilla extract.

Mix the flour, baking powder, and salt in another bowl. Combine the dry ingredients into the wet mixture and stir until a dough forms. Put the dough in a container or cover the bowl with wrap and refrigerate for 3-4 hours depending on how much you make.

Grab one or two baking trays and line them with parchment paper. Get a tablespoonful of the dough, depending on how much you made, and grab a smaller bowl and add the confectioner's sugar. (Tip: use an ice cream scoop for the dough balls) Place the dough ball into the sugar, until fully coated and place the dough balls on your baking trays.

Preheat oven to 350 F for about 10 minutes. After preheat, bake the cookies for 6 minutes. (If you doubled the recipe, bake for 8-10 minutes) After taking them out of the oven, let the cookies cool for about 5 minutes.
