Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350ºF.

  2. In a bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

  3. In a second large bowl, combine sugar and McEvoy Ranch Olive Oil and mix with a wooden spoon until it forms a grainy paste. Add eggs and vanilla and stir until smooth. Fold in dry ingredients until just incorporated. You should have a fairly soft, oily dough.

  4. Fill a small dish with more granulated sugar. Scoop dough with a cookie scoop or tablespoonful into balls and roll in sugar to coat. Arrange on a nonstick or parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving 2 inches of space between cookies.

  5. Bake for 11 to 13 minutes or until tops are puffed and crackly and edges just start to turn light golden brown. Let cool for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Cookies are best enjoyed the day they are made, but will keep in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
