If you want to make only half of the recipe use the amounts in parenthesis.
3/4 cup vegetable oil (1/4 cup + 2 Tablespoons)
3/4 cup baking cocoa (1/4 cup + 2 Tablespoons)
2 cups sugar (1 cup)
4 eggs (2 eggs)
2 teaspoons vanilla (1 teaspoon)
2 cups flour (1 cup)
2 teaspoons baking powder (1 teaspoon)
1/2 teaspoon salt (1/4 teaspoon)
1 cup confectioner's sugar (1/2 cup)
Mix oil, cocoa and sugar together. Blend in eggs and vanilla. Stir in flour, baking powder and salt. Chill several hours in refrigerator or an hour in the 30 - 60 minutes in the freezer. If you are really in a hurry and can't wait while the dough chills, add 1/2 cup to 1 cup more flour. (1/4 cup - 1/2 cup for half a recipe).
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Place the confectioners sugar in a small bowl. Put some confectioners sugar on your hands, repeating as necessary. Gently roll a teaspoonful of dough into a ball and then roll it in the confectioners sugar. Place 2" apart on a greased (or parchment lined) cookie sheet. Bake 10 - 12 minutes or until almost no imprint remains when lightly touched in center. Makes 6 dozen cookies.
