HEALTHY AVOCADO CHOCOLATE COOKIES
Prep time: 5 mins
Cook time: 8 mins
Total time: 13 mins
Serves: 10
Ingredients
100 g Avocado flesh* (very ripe, but not brown)
½ cup coconut sugar**
1 egg
½ cup dark cocoa powder
50 g. dark chocolate chunks
1 tbsp. water
½ tsp. baking soda
Instructions
Preheat oven to 175°C / 350° F.
In a bowl using a hand mixer, mix together avocado and coconut sugar until smooth. Add in the egg.
Mix in the cocoa powder and chocolate chunks. In a small bowl or glass, dissolve the baking soda in water and add to the dough. Mix well.
Using two spoons place dollops of cookie dough on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. The cookie won't spread as much as usual cookies when baking, so make sure to flatten them out a bit with the back of the spoon.
Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cookies don't stick as much to the paper as they did before baking.
Cool down. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
Notes: The cookies are best cold - and even better when they have been in the fridge overnight.
* 100 g. avocado flesh equals ¾ cup
** You can sub ⅓ cup not-so-runny honey for the coconut sugar
