  3. In another bowl, mix the wet ingredients: vegetable oil, eggs, vanilla extract, and red food coloring until well combined.
  4. Gradually add the wet mixture into the dry mixture and stir gently until just combined.
Chilling and Baking
  1. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
  2. Scoop tablespoon-sized amounts of dough and roll them into balls.
  3. Roll each ball in powdered sugar until fully coated.
  4. Place the cookies on the lined baking sheets, 2 inches apart, and bake for about 10-12 minutes.
  5. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
Serving and Storage
