FLOURLESS COCOA COOKIES



Flourless Cocoa Cookies image

Whenever I'm called upon to make something gluten-free, I opt for classics that are naturally sans wheat flour--like Pavlovas, Macarons, Macaroons, and these flourless cocoa delights. These cookies are tender, delicately chewy, and incredibly chocolaty--if a brownie and a cookie had an affair, this would be their love-child. I like to add a sprinkling of flaky Maldon salt, because these are for grown-ups.

Time 25m

Yield 22 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 8

170 grams (3 large) eggs
340 grams (3 cups) powdered sugar
106 grams (1 1/4) cups unsweetened cocoa powder
1 gram (1/2 teaspoon) ground cinnamon
1 gram (1/4 teaspoon) fine sea salt
7.5 grams (1 1/2 teaspoons) vanilla extract
142 grams (1 cup) bittersweet chocolate chunks
Maldon salt, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) with racks in the upper and lower thirds. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, lightly whisk the eggs.
  • Sift together the powdered sugar, cocoa powder, cinnamon, and salt. Add to the eggs, whisking until the mixture forms a smooth batter, about 1 minute. Add the vanilla and chocolate chunks and mix until fully incorporated; switch to a rubber spatula if necessary. The batter will be very thick and sticky.
  • Use a No. 30 (2-tablespoon) scoop to portion the batter onto the prepared baking sheets--stagger the cookies, leaving about 1 1/2 inches between them. Sprinkle a little Maldon salt on each cookie.
  • Bake the cookies, rotating the sheets from front to back and top to bottom at the halfway mark, until set around the edges and cracked on top, 10 to 12 minutes. The cookies may look slightly underbaked in the center--that's exactly what you want. Cool the cookies completely on the pans.

NO BAKE COOKIES I



No Bake Cookies I image

Tasty no-bake cookies made with oatmeal, peanut butter and cocoa. Start timing when mixture reaches a full rolling boil; this is the trick to successful cookies. If you boil too long the cookies will be dry and crumbly. If you don't boil long enough, the cookies won't form properly.
