Ingredients
  

  • 1 ¼ cup gluten-free all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2 eggs, room temperature
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder (50g)
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar, for rolling

Instructions
 

  • Whisk gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, beat the eggs with the sugar. Add the cocoa powder and the oil, and mix well.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture and mix until well incorporated. The dough is sticky. Let the dough chill in the refrigerator for about 2 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  • With a tablespoon or cookie scoop, portion out the dough into small balls, and roll the dough balls generously in powdered sugar, then roll a second time before baking for a thicker coating.
  • Place the balls into the prepared baking sheet and bake for 10/12 minutes. Keep in mind that all ovens are different.
