Preheat oven to 350°F degrees. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
In medium bowl, sift together flour, activated charcoal, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
In the bowl of standing mixer, beat together powdered sugar, melted coconut oil, almond milk and vanilla until creamy.
Add flour mixture and continue to mix until combined. Dough will thicken as you stir. If the dough still seems runny simply pop in the fridge for 5 minutes.
