Pixies

Pixies are chocolate cookies that are rolled in powdered sugar before baked. My Grandma made this recipes for years for Christmas. She always kept them in Christmas cookie tins and had them on the counter whenever we would visit her. They are delicious and Christmastime requires for me to make them and remember my dear Grandmother.

INGREDIENTS:
1/2 cup oil
2 cups sugar
4 squares unsweetened chocolate, melted
4 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
2 cups flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup chopped walnuts, optional

Powdered sugar

HOW TO PREPARE:
In a medium-sized bowl, blend together oil, 2 cups sugar, and melted chocolate.

Blend in eggs and vanilla. Then mix in flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir in walnuts, if desired.

Chill in the fridge for 1 hour, covered. Use a cookie scoop to form cookies and roll them in powdered sugar. Place on a parchment-paper lined cookie pan. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the tops crack and the cookies are cooked through. Allow to cool. Store in an airtight container.
