Crinkle Cake

1. Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Mix dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
3. Cream butter and sugar: In a separate large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
4. Add eggs and vanilla: Beat in the eggs one at a time, then add the vanilla extract and mix until well combined.

1. Combine wet and dry ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. The result should be a thick, fudgy dough.
2. Chill the dough: Cover the dough and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight. Chilling the dough helps it firm up, making it easier to handle.
3. Form into balls and roll in powdered sugar: Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Roll each ball in powdered sugar, ensuring they are generously coated.

1. Bake: Place the coated dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between them. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are set, and the tops have cracked.
2. Cool: Allow the crinkle cakes to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
