Equipment
- Mixing Bowl
- Whisk or spatula
- Baking Sheet
- Parchment Paper
- Cookie scoop or tablespoon
Ingredients
- 180 g almond flour
- 220 g powdered sugar
- 4 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 60 g egg whites
- extra powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). This ensures that your cookies bake evenly and achieve that perfect texture.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This will prevent the cookies from sticking and make for easy cleanup.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, powdered sugar, and cocoa powder until well combined. This will ensure even distribution of all the dry ingredients.
- Add the egg whites to the dry mixture. Using a spatula or whisk, gently mix until all ingredients are combined. The mixture should be thick and slightly sticky.
- Using a cookie scoop or a tablespoon, portion out the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Leave some space between each cookie, as they will spread slightly while baking.
- Lightly dust the tops of the cookie dough balls with powdered sugar. This not only adds sweetness but also creates a beautiful contrast once baked.
- Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops look slightly cracked.
- Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy your delicious Almond Chocolate Cookies with a cup of tea or coffee!
Notes
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
- Add chocolate chips for extra texture and flavor if desired.
- Experiment with flavored extracts like almond or orange to customize the taste.
