Mexican Chocolate Chip Cookies (Ket Diet) topcook.tomathouse.com
Ingredients:
- 60 g unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 3/4 cup blanched almond flour
- 0.5 cup coconut flour
- 1/3 cup cocoa powder
- 3/4 tsp fine salt
- 0.5 tsp cream of tartar
- 0.5 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon of baking soda
- 0.5 cup + 1/4 teaspoon erythritol (see Note)
- 1.5 tsp ground cinnamon
Preparation:
- Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, combine butter, vanilla extract and eggs.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the almond and coconut flours, cocoa powder, salt, cream of tartar, cayenne pepper, baking soda, 1/2 cup erythritol, and 1 1/4 teaspoons cinnamon. Using a hand mixer, fold the egg mixture into the dry ingredients and knead until smooth. The dough will appear crumbly, but should come together when pressed together.
- Using your hands, scoop out 1 heaping tablespoon of dough at a time and form balls, then place them evenly on the prepared baking sheet; this will prevent the cookies from spreading too much during baking. Gently press each ball with the palm of your hand.
- Combine the remaining 1/4 teaspoon erythritol and 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon and sprinkle over the cookies. Bake until set and cracked on the surface, 13-15 minutes. Let cool.
Note
Erythritol is a sugar substitute that can be found in most health food stores or online.
