Hello steemians,
Hope you guys are having a great day!
Here's my first article post for Steemit!
I hope you like it!
For you sweet tooth out there, I have a treat for you!
1 cup dutch cocoa powder
2 cups granulated sugar
1/2 cup veg. oil
2 cups flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
4 eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup confectionery sugar
plastic wrap
All of this can be easily bought in your local grocery store!
On a big bowl, mix the cocoa powder,
(can be any brand you wish, but I recommend Dutch brand because it makes darker color and tastes more chocolatey.)
granulated sugar, veg oil (you can use any unscented oil. e.g. canola oil).
Make sure everything is well incorporated (texture should look sandy) then add 3 eggs one at a time.
on the side, beat an egg together with 2 tsp of vanilla extract and add it into the mixture
on a side bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt.
Mix together the cocoa dough and the dry ingredients.
You can use a hand mixer for convenience or a spatula with patience. :)
end result
Once everything is incorporated, cover the bowl with a plastic wrap and chill for at least 4 hours
ready your confectionery sugar and your cookie pan with wax paper!
After 4 hours, the dough should look like a clay,.
You can start rolling a teaspoon of chocolate dough by hand.
(To avoid sticking, put some veg. oil on your hand!)
and put it on top of the confectionery sugar.
and keep rollin rollin rollin
Pre-heat your oven and then put these cute little cloud balls into the pan with wax paper
and put it in the oven at 350 F/ 177 C for 10 minutes
you can see them start getting cracks... and yourself drooling :)
Take it out of the oven, let it stand on the cookie sheet for a minute and transfer to a wire rack and let it cool
After cooling, put them in a plastic or glass container and start filling your bellies with these cloud cookies!
You can make about 62 Choco Crinkles for the given recipe! Its a lot so make sure you give your kids, neighbors and/or friends for sharing. :) Or you can keep it to yourself and bear the toothache later on!
That's all for today!
I hope you enjoy my my article and these little cloud balls :)
See you tomorrow!!!
