Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon green food coloring
- Powdered sugar for rolling
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, blend together granulated sugar and vegetable oil until combined and glossy. Add eggs and vanilla extract, beating until smooth and creamy.
- In another bowl, whisk together baking powder, salt, and flour until mixed. Gradually add this dry mixture into the wet ingredients until no streaks of flour remain.
- Stir in green food coloring gradually until you achieve your desired shade of green; the dough should be uniform and vibrant without patches.
- Cover the dough with plastic wrap or transfer it to an airtight container and refrigerate for about 30 minutes to firm up.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Roll tablespoon-sized portions of chilled dough into balls, then roll each ball generously in powdered sugar before placing them on a lined baking sheet.
- Bake for about 10-12 minutes until edges are set but centers remain soft; they will flatten slightly as they cool.
