Sure cookie bars and brownies are great, but sometimes you just want a big cookie full of gooey chocolate puddles that tastes like a brownie with a slight mocha flavor. Lemme tell y’all, these cookies are not for the weak. They have an intense chocolatey flavor, curtesy of a few key ingredients.
First up, dark cocoa powder. Like the name implys, this cocoa taste like dark chocolate and is crucial if you want a rich chocolate flavor.
Secondly, Dark chocolate chunks. ‘Nough said.
Last but surely not least, Queen Creek Olive Mill’s Chocolate olive oil. Yes is sounds strange, but trust me on this one. Usually when I think of olive oil I think about savory dishes, but these cookies are proof that olive oil deserves a spot in the baking seen. This chocolate olive oil is cold pressed with cocoa bean oil for a unique, delectable flavor. Now I normally use coconut oil in my recipes, but I swapped it for this chocolate olive oil. It adds extra chocolate flavor because we all know you can never have enough chocolate💁
These cookies also have extra pizazz thanks to a little help from my friend, instant coffee. But for some reason if you’re not a coffee fanatic, you can totally take it out if that floats your boat.
Here is what you need :
almond butter
egg (or flax egg)
dark cocoa powder
maple syrup
instant coffee
baking soda
dark chocolate chunks
mocha drizzle
