Description

Thin, crisp, and flourless dark chocolate wafers


Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 large eggs, room temp
  • 1/4 cup room temp coconut oil
  • 3 tablespoons nut or seed butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2/3 cup Maple Sugar or keto-granulated sweetener
  • 3/4 cup cacao powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine salt

Instructions

  1. Start by whisking together the eggs, oil, almond butter, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  2. Once smooth set a fine mesh sieve over the bowl.
  3. Combine the cacao powder, granulated sweetener, salt, and baking powder in the sieve. Then tap it to sift the dry ingredients into the wet ones.
  4. Chill the dough for 20-30 minutes, then use a 1 oz cookie scoop to shape the cookies
  5. As you put each dough ball on a lined sheet pan, use a small, lightly oiled square of parchment paper to gently press it down, and then use wet or oiled fingers to smooth out the edges.
  6. Repeat with all of the dough. Bake at 350F for 10-12 minutes. Let cool to room temp before handling.
  7. Store in the fridge to keep them crisp!

Recipe Notes:

  • The dough will be very sticky! That’s how it’s supposed to be. Using oiled hands and a lightly oiled piece of parchment paper to flatten and shape them helps.
  • The icing is just melted coconut butter with cinnamon.
