The day has come when you can finally make the perfect chocolate cookies! Not to forget, they’re even more perfect when topped with chocolate chips and sea salt.
30g / 1 oz nut flour of choice (I used almond & hazelnut) or more oat flour
1,5 tbsp cocoa powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
A hearty pinch of salt
A splash of vanilla extract
20g / 0,7 oz melted dark chocolate
A handfull of chocolate chips or roughly chopped chocolate
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 150ºC / 300ºF and prepare a cookie pan by lining it with parchment paper.
In a food processor, blend the dates, flours, cocoa, baking soda, salt, and vanilla until you get a nice firm, moist but not sticky nor dry, dough. Then, while running the food processor, add the melted chocolate to the dough and mix until combined. If too dry, add a splash of water. Mix in the chocolate chips/chopped chocolate to the dough.
Divide and shape the dough into eight balls and place on the prepared cookie pan. Using your hands, preferably slightly wet, shape the balls into around 1 cm / 1/3 inch thick cookies. Optionally top with a pinch of course salt. Bake for 12-16 minutes. Let cool and enjoy!
