Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

½ teaspoon salt

½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder

¾ cup granulated sugar

⅓ cup vegetable oil

2 eggs

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

½ cup rainbow sprinkles

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  2. Using an mixer on medium speed, beat together the cocoa, sugar, and vegetable oil until combined. Beat the eggs in 1 at a time, then beat in the vanilla. Reduce the mixer speed to low and add the flour mixture, mixing until just combined. Place the dough in plastic wrap or foil and refrigerate at least 3 hours or overnight.
  3. Once finished chilling, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Place the sprinkles in a small bowl.
  4. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls (I used a small cookie scoop for this), then roll in the sprinkles, pressing gently to make sure they stick. Place the balls of dough 2 inches apart on the baking sheets.
  5. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until the cookies have spread a bit and look set. They will remain soft and chewy in the center. Let the cookies cool completely on the baking sheet before removing them. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
