Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup finely ground almond flour
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder
  • scant 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips or sugar free chocolate chips
  • 3 tbsp powdered sugar or powdered erythritol

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp milk of choice
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil or additional milk

Optional

  • powdered sugar or erythritol to coat

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 325°F (163°C), ensuring it reaches the right temperature for baking your cookies evenly.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, thoroughly stir together the almond flour, cocoa powder, salt, baking soda, mini chocolate chips, and powdered sugar or erythritol until well combined.
  3. Add Wet Ingredients to Form Dough: Pour in the milk of choice and coconut oil (or additional milk) to the dry mixture, stirring until a dough forms. If the dough feels too wet, refrigerate it until firm enough to handle.
  4. Form Cookie Balls: Once the dough is firm, roll it into balls using your hands or a cookie scoop, shaping each ball evenly for consistent baking.
  5. Prepare Baking Tray: Line a baking tray with parchment paper or grease it lightly to prevent sticking before placing your cookie dough balls onto the tray.
  6. Optional Flattening: For flatter cookies, gently press each ball down with a fork or spoon before baking.
  7. Bake the Cookies: Place the tray in the preheated oven and bake your cookies for 11 minutes, allowing them to develop a fudgy texture.
  8. Cooling and Coating: After baking, let the cookies cool completely on the tray before handling. If desired, roll the cooled cookies in additional powdered sugar or erythritol for a sweet coating.

Notes

  • Do not omit or reduce the chocolate chips to maintain the cookies’ fudgy and delicious texture.
  • If the dough is too sticky to handle, refrigerate it longer to firm up before shaping.
  • Use sugar-free chocolate chips to keep the recipe fully keto-friendly.
  • These cookies pair wonderfully with unsweetened almond milk for a guilt-free treat.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or refrigerate for longer freshness.
