Zebra Cookies

Ingredients:
4 oz unsweetened bakers chocolate
3 eggs, beaten
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup cooking oil (I use vegetable oil)
2 tsp baking powder
2 tsp vanilla
2 cups flour (all purpose)
1 cup sifted powdered sugar
Milk chocolate kisses with white stripes (Hershey's Hugs)... I cannot find them at Spangdahlem but haven't looked at Bitburg or Ramstein yet - I just used plain Hershey's Kisses and still tastes great, but the Hugs give more of the zebra effect so I'm on the lookout for them!

Directions:
*Stir unsweetened chocolate in a small heavy saucepan over low heat until melted. Cool.
*Combine eggs, sugar, melted chocolate, oil, baking powder and vanilla in a large bowl.
*Gradually add flour to the chocolate mixture.
*Cover and chill for 2 hours.
*Shape dough into 1 to 1 1/2" balls and roll in the powdered sugar.
*Place 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets.
*Bake at 375 degrees (F) for 8-10 minutes or until edges crack.
*Press a Hershey Hug or Kiss in center of the hot cookie and let cool on a wire rack.

Serving size depends on how big you make the round balls... could be up to 40 cookies.
