Chocolate Drop Cookies (411)

(Next up for our baking day was Chocolate Drop Cookies! This are so cute when all is said and done.

Chocolate Drop Cookies
1/2 cup vegetable oil
4 oz. unsweetened chocolate (melted)
2 cups white sugar
4 eggs
2 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups flour
2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup confectioners sugar

Mix oil, chocolate, and sugar. Blend in one egg at a time, add vanilla. Then stir in flour, baking powder, and salt. Chill several hours before baking. Drop and roll the dough into confectioners sugar and then place on a cookie sheet.
Bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes you don't want to over bake these cookies.

You add in all the ingredients, using one egg at a time. Once everything it all mixed together, place in the fridge to chill so that is easier to create a cookie dough ball. Take a scoop and place in a bowl of confectioners sugar, also known as powered sugar and roll the ball in that. then place on the cookie sheet and place into the oven. When taking them out of the oven, the insides may look like they aren't done, but they will continue to cook after taken them out of the oven. They will also look really cool because as they expanded while cooking they create a cool effect with the powered sugar.

These are really cute and really yummy. We put them out at a Christmas get together and they were a huge hit and we still have a lot left, they definitely make a lot. My cousins loved them, they all said that they were the best things they have ever tasted.

I highly recommend making these, they are on the challenging end, but totally worth it in the end. Just make sure to not over bake the cookies, and to make sure to completely cover the dough balls in powered sugar. And be careful when you bite into the deliciousness to not inhale the powder and choke. I may have done that a few times before. And its so festive to wash it down with a glass of milk. Writing this is making me want to go grab one and devour it right now.

Go out a spend time with family and bake some cookies. This is a perfect way to come together as a family, and have some yummy food, before the New Years dieting begins. I will be taking part in that. Go make this cookies and you will be in love.
