Ingredients
- 2 cups + 2 tablespoons all purpose flour*
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 4 ounces unsweetened chocolate
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup Imperial Sugar Extra Fine Granulated Sugar
- 1 cup well packed Imperial Sugar Dark Brown Sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 3/4 cup Imperial Sugar Confectioners Powdered Sugar
*Spoon & Sweep method: Use a spoon to fill measuring cup with flour until required amount is obtained. Scooping measuring cup directly into flour bag will firmly pack flour resulting in too much flour required for recipe.
Directions

- Place on cookie sheets about 2 inches apart.

- Move to a wire rack to cool completely.
