Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it. (5 minutes)

02

Step
10 mins

In a large bowl, combine the sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, vanilla extract, salt, baking powder, purple yam powder, and flour in the order listed. Mix until the dough is well blended and forms a cohesive ball. (10 minutes)

03

Step
5 mins

Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie. (5 minutes)

04

Step
10 mins

Bake in the preheated oven until the cookies look firm and are lightly golden around the edges, approximately 8 to 10 minutes. (10 minutes)

05

Step
5 mins

Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for at least 5 minutes before gently transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. (5 minutes)

For a thinner cookie, substitute 1 teaspoon (or more) of baking soda for the baking powder. The cookies will spread more during baking.
Feel free to add white chocolate chips or other desired toppings after baking for an extra touch of sweetness and visual appeal.
The amount of purple yam powder can be adjusted to taste. Start with 1/3 cup and add more if you desire a more intense purple yam flavor.
For a richer flavor, try using melted butter instead of vegetable oil.
