Chocolate cookies rolled in confectioner's sugar. We have called these 'Ahortas' after a 'being' in the original Star Trek series -- can you tell how long I have been making these?! Ingredients:
1/2 cup vegetable oil |
4 (1 ounce) squares unsweetened chocolate, melted |
2 cups white sugar |
4 eggs |
2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
2 cups all-purpose flour |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 cup confectioners' sugar |
Directions:
1. Mix oil, chocolate, and granulated sugar. 2. Blend in one egg at a time until well mixed. Add vanilla. 3. Stir flour, baking powder and salt into oil mixture. 4. Chill several hours or overnight. 5. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). 6. Drop by teaspoonfuls into confectioners' sugar. 7. Roll in sugar; shape into balls and place about 2 inches apart on greased baking sheet. Bake 10 to 12 minutes (do not overbake). NOTE: If you use self-rising flour, omit the baking powder and salt. |
