Double Chocolate Cookies

Melting the chocolate and letting it cool to just warm, not hot, before mixing it into the dough is what keeps the eggs from scrambling on contact.

Ingredients

  • 4 oz dairy-free dark chocolate, chopped and melted
  • 1/2 cup dairy-free butter, softened
  • 3/4 cup allulose
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1.5 cups almond flour
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup dairy-free chocolate chips

Method

  1. 1

    Melt the chopped dark chocolate in a double boiler or short microwave bursts, then let it cool until just warm to the touch, not hot — mixing hot melted chocolate directly with egg can partially scramble it on contact, creating little flecks of cooked egg instead of a smooth batter.

  2. 2

    Cream dairy-free butter and allulose until fluffy, beat in the egg and vanilla, then beat in the cooled melted chocolate.

  3. 3

    Whisk almond flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt together, then mix into the wet ingredients until just combined.

  4. 4

    Fold in chocolate chips, then chill the dough 30 minutes.

  5. 5

    Scoop onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake at 350°F for 10-12 minutes. Cool on the pan 5 minutes.
