Ingredients
- 115gr\4oz sugar-free chocolate chips
- 2 tbsp. coconut oil
- 1 large egg at room temperature
- 43gr\1.5oz erythritol
- 1 tsp. vanilla essence
- half tsp. baking powder
- 21gr\0.7oz pinch of salt
- 2 tsp. almond flour
- 21gr\0.7oz unsweetened cocoa powder
- 21gr\0.7oz pecan nuts or peanuts
- sugar free chocolate chips
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 370°F\180°C.
- Prepare a cookie sheet with parchment paper. Spray some oil if needed. Set aside.
- In a small mixing bowl, add the sugar free chocolate chips and melted coconut oil.
- Melt the chocolate chips with coconut oil in the microwave, by 30 seconds burst, stirring between to avoid the chocolate to burn. Set aside.
- Meanwhile, in a medium mixing bowl, beat egg, sugar free crystal sweetener, vanilla essence, baking powder and salt.
- Stir in the melted chocolate mixture. Now pour in the almond flour and unsweetened cocoa powder. Combine with a spoon until fully incorporated. Don't over mix it to avoid the batter to dry out. The batter will thicken again, looks like a brownie batter, thick but still runny. If your almond flour is not too thin you can also see some tiny bites of almond flour and that is ok.
- Stir in the chopped pecan nuts or chocolate chips regarding your taste, choose your option.
- Spoon out the batter on the prepared cookie sheet. You should make 6 large cookies out of this dough. The cookies will expand a lot while baking so leave some space - about 1.5inch\4 cm between each cookie.
- Bake for 10-14 minutes or until the edges are cooked. The middle stays soft and that is normal. Serve after 30 minutes or more until they cool.
