1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/3 cup oil
1/3 cup cocoa powder
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups flour
2/3 cup powdered sugar, for rolling cookies in
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 C). Beat together the sugar and butter in a medium mixing bowl until creamed. Add the salt, soda, vanilla, and cocoa and mix until combined. Stir in the egg, then add the flour 1 cup at a time until the dough comes together.
Roll the dough into balls, about 2 tablespoons each, and place them about 2 inches apart on a parchment lined baking tray. Pour the powdered sugar into a shallow bowl or pie pan and roll each one in it to coat well. Place them back on the tray and bake for 8 - 10 minutes, or until the edges start to darken slightly. Remove from oven and cool for a minimum of 5 minutes before taking them off the tray. You can eat them soft and warm or allow them to cool for a while if you like them more solid.
Thanks for all the support @vegetarianbaker I hope you enjoy!
