Instructions

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F) on the conventional setting. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, stir together 1 cup (100 g) almond flour, ½ teaspoon baking powder, 3 tablespoons (21 g) cocoa powder, and 4 tablespoons (48 g) granulated erythritol until evenly combined.
  • Add 1 medium egg and 4 tablespoons (60 g) softened butter to the dry ingredients. Mix with a fork or spatula until a smooth, cohesive dough forms and no large dry streaks remain.
  • Fold in ¼ cup (30 g) sugar-free chocolate chips, reserving a small handful to press on top of the cookies.
  • Divide the dough into 9 equal portions and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each. Shape each portion into a cookie shape (they will spread slightly, so shape roughly to your desired final size).
  • Press the reserved chocolate chips onto the top of each cookie.
  • Bake on the center oven rack for about 12 minutes, until the edges are set (centers may still be slightly soft).
  • Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cookies cool completely on the sheet before handling.

Notes

Notes
1.9 g net carbs
per cookie (average weight: 35 grams).
The cookies are very
fragile
when hot. They
firm up once cooled
.
For a
fudgier
cookie, reduce the baking time to 10 minutes. For a
crispy
cookie, flatten and bake for up to 14 minutes.
Add a
pinch of salt
for some extra WOW.
**If using super-fine almond flour, reduce the amount to ¾ cup / 75g.
