Salted Mocha Cookies
I need you to sit down for this news…
I don’t drink coffee. I know - GASP! I stopped drinking it over 10 years ago & have never looked back, BUT I still love the flavor of coffee. That’s why these Salted Mocha Cookies are definitely at the top of my list of favorites. They have a subtle hint of coffee with strong notes of chocolate & savory salt.
These cookies are sure to become one of your favorite go-to cookies.
Salted Mocha Cookies
INGREDIENTS
2 cups almond flour
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
1/2 cup maple syrup
1/2 cup avocado oil
1/4 cup cocoa powder
1/4 cup coconut sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla
2 teaspoons instant coffee granules
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
coarse finishing salt
DIRECTIONS
preheat the oven to 350.
combine almond flour, cocoa powder, coconut sugar, instant coffee granules, baking soda, & salt in a medium size mixing bowl. add in the chocolate chips & give them a stir.
add in the maple syrup, oil & vanilla & stir until completely combined into a dough.
use a medium cookie scoop to measure dough balls onto a silpat liner on a rimmed baking sheet.
wet the palm of your hand & press dough slightly to flatten. sprinkle with finishing salt.
bake 10-12 minutes, until edges look done. i highly recommend using a silpat liner. these liners are extraordinarily useful in keeping chocolate cookies from burning.
allow cookies to cool on cookie sheet for 10 minutes then transfer to a paper towel lined cooling rack.
