These cookies are a delightful blend of softness, rich raw cocoa flavor, a touch of bittersweetness, and a hint of crunch. They’re the perfect complement for s’mores or a light 5 o’clock snack. Plus, they’re a breeze to whip up with a food processor and bake in just 10 minutes. Now, doesn’t that sound like music to your ears?
Ingredients:
- 1 cup almond meal
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 3 tablespoons almond butter
- 1/4 cup melted coconut oil
- 1/2 teaspoon aluminium-free sodium bicarbonate
- 1/4 teaspoon Himalayan salt
- 1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/4 cup raw cocoa beans, crushed
Instructions:
– In a food processor, combine all ingredients except for the cocoa beans. Mix until the dough is well-formed.
– Add in the crushed cocoa beans and give it a final stir.
– Using an ice cream scoop, shape the dough into balls and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
– Once the sheet is filled, cover the dough balls with another sheet of parchment paper. Gently press the dough with the bottom of a glass to flatten them. Adjust the thickness to your liking; I prefer mine on the thin side.
– Remove the top parchment paper and transfer the cookies to the preheated oven.
– Bake for approximately 10 minutes.
– Allow them to cool completely before transferring them to a plate.
The cookies will have a nice crunch on the first day, but they’ll gradually soften. Store them in an airtight container in the fridge for optimal freshness.
Enjoy these delightful cookies!
