Chocolate Crinkle Cookies

Love these chocolate cookies!  The recipe makes a big batch and I love the pattern the powdered sugar makes!
If you don't have  unsweetened chocolate squares substitute:  1 square (1 oz) unsweetened chocolate is equal to 3 tablespoons cocoa (regular-type dry) plus 1 Tablespoon butter or shortening.






Chocolate Crinkle Cookies


1/2 cup oil
4 1-ounce squares unsweetened chocolate, melted
2 cups sugar
4 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 cup powdered sugar

Mix oil, melted chocolate, and sugar.  Add one egg at a time and mix well.  Add vanilla, salt, flour and baking powder.  Chill overnight.
Preheat oven to 350.  Shape dough into balls of about one teaspoon each and roll in powdered sugar.  Place on well greased baking sheets and bake 10-12 minutes.
