Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) and grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment paper.

In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

In a separate large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.

Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.

Using a cookie scoop or a spoon, drop dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a space between each cookie.

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are set but still slightly soft in the center.

Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Once cooled, dust the cookies with powdered sugar for a festive touch before serving.
