Makes 48

I got this cookie recipe from a fellow Penn State grad student at a Christmas cookie swap party in 1993.

Ingredients:

• 3 eggs, beaten
• 1 1/2 C sugar
• 1/2 C oil
• 2 tsp vanilla
• 4 oz. unsweetened chocolate, melted and cooled
• 2 C all-purpose flour
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 C sifted confectioner's sugar

Method

1. Beat together eggs, sugar, oil, and vanilla; add chocolate.
2. Stir in flour and baking powder. Mix well.
3. Cover and chill for 1 to 2 hours.
4. Roll chilled dough between hands into about 48 1-inch balls. Roll in confectioner's sugar and place 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets.
5. Bake at 375° F for 10 minutes.
6. Cool on racks.
