Description

Ingredients

• 100 g. (3/4 cup) avocado flesh (very ripe, but not brown)
• ½ cup (120mL) coconut sugar (*SEE NOTES)
• 1 egg (FOR VEGAN VERSION SEE BELOW)
• ½ cup (120mL) dark cocoa powder
• 50 g. dark chocolate chunks (I used 85% cocoa)
• ½ tsp. baking soda

Directions

• Preheat oven to 175°C / 350° F.
• In a bowl using a hand mixer (or make everything in a food processor), mix together avocado and coconut sugar until smooth. Add in the egg.
• Mix in the cocoa powder and baking soda.
• Stir in chocolate chunks.
• Using two spoons place dollops of cookie dough in a baking sheet with parchment paper. The cookie wont 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 dont stick as much to the paper as they did before baking.
• Cool down. Store in an airtight container in the fridge.
