Instructions
In a medium bowl, whisk together the 1 cup flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt.
In a mixing bowl, mix the 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, and 1/4 cup vegetable oil together. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing until completely combined. Mix in the vanilla.
Add the flour mixture and combine thoroughly. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate dough for a minimum of 4 hours.
When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350°F, and prepare two baking sheets by lining them each with a piece of parchment.
Shape the dough into 1-inch balls using either a cookie scoop or spoons, and roll each into the powdered sugar to coat completely.
Place onto the prepared baking sheets at least 1-inch apart as the cookies will spread. Bake for 10-12 minutes. Allow the cookies to sit on the baking sheets for a few minutes before moving to a wire rack to cool completely.
