Ingredients
  

  • 6 eggs

  • 3 Tbsp vanilla
  • 3/4 cup olive or avocado oil
  • 1 cup cocoa
  • 3 cups unbleached white flour
  • 3 Tbsp baking powder
  • 1 cup icing sugar for rolling

Instructions
 

  • Beat eggs with sugar until light and fluffy. Add vanilla.
  • Add oil and stir until well blended.
  • Mix all dry ingredients well with a whisk. Add to wet ingredients and mix until a smooth dough is formed.
  • Chill dough for at least 3 hours.
  • Roll dough into small balls, then roll in icing sugar. Place on ungreased baking sheets at least 2 inches apart. Bake at 350°F for 10 minutes. DO NOT OVERBAKE. Let cookies cool slightly on sheets, then remove them with a spatula and put them on racks to finish cooling.

Notes

NANAS NOTES:
These cookies are rich, chewy, and chocolatey. They spread a lot, so don't be tempted to put them closer together than recommended.  This makes 10-12 dozen based on how large you make the balls.
