Ingredients for the cookies
- 140 g all-purpose flour
- 140 g granulated sugar
- 60 g ION cocoa powder
- 50 ml seed oil
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- zest of 1 orange (optionally)
- 2 medium eggs
Ingredients for the coating
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 100 g icing sugar
Method
Into a bowl, mix the eggs along with sugar, then add the seed oil while stirring the mixture, and finally add the cocoa powder. When the ingredients are completely incorporated, add the rest of the ingredients and start stirring with a mariz, until the mixture forms into a really soft dough.
Finally, cover the bowl with plastic wrap, so that the plastic wrap touches the surface of the dough. Place it in the freezer for 1 hour, or refrigerate for 2-3 hours.
When the dough is chilled completely, scrape out the dough with a spoon, and start rolling the chilled dough into balls to the size of your preference. Forming into balls, press slightly to the center of each ball to make a small pit.
Afterwards, mix well the icing sugar and cornstarch into a bowl, until completely combined. Next, roll the balls one by one into the powdery mixture, and place them on a lined baking pan with parchment paper.
Bake in a preheated oven, on the middle rack, at 170-180 C fan for about 12-14 minutes.
