Description

A simple recipe for purple yam cookies. These taste awesome! They're very soft and cake-like in texture. These are dome-shaped once they bake. You can flatten them as desired.This is a flexible recipe. You can add a teaspoon (or more) of baking soda instead of baking powder if you want a thinner cookie. I think you can top these with some white chocolate chips after baking.

Ingredients
  • ¾ cup white sugar
  • ⅔ cup vegetable oil
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ⅓ cup purple yam powder, or more to taste
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
Directions
  1. 1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease lightly.
  2. 2. Mix sugar, oil, eggs, vanilla extract, salt, baking powder, purple yam powder, and flour, in this order, in a large bowl until dough is well blended. Drop tablespoons of dough onto the baking sheet.
  3. 3. Bake in the preheated oven until cookies look firm, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool for at least 5 minutes before gently transferring to a wire rack.
