Ingredients
  

  • 1 3/4 cups (210 g / 7.4 oz) coconut flour
  • 1/3 cup (32 g / 1.13 oz) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup (48 g / 1.69 oz) granulated stevia or your preferred keto sweetener
  • 1 teaspoon (4 g / 0.14 oz) baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon (1.5 g / 0.05 oz) salt
  • 1 large egg, slightly beaten
  • 2 tablespoons (28 g / 0.99 oz) butter, melted
  • 1/2 teaspoon (2.5 ml / 0.1 fl oz) vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup (85 g / 3 oz) unsweetened or sugar-free chocolate chips
  • for Perfect Keto Cookies
  • Store these cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. They stay wonderfully moist and fudgy.

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F / 175°C.
  2. Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the coconut flour, cocoa powder, stevia, baking powder, and salt until well combined and free of lumps.
  4. In a separate medium bowl, mix the slightly beaten egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
  5. Pour the wet into the dry .
  6. Mix with a spatula or wooden spoon until a thick, uniform dough forms. The dough will be dense.
  7. Fold in the unsweetened chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed.
  8. Using a small cookie scoop or a tablespoon, drop rounded portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches / 5 cm apart.
  9. Gently flatten the tops of the cookies with your palm or the bottom of a glass, as they will not spread much during baking.
  10. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly soft.
  11. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  12. Don't overbake. Coconut flour cookies can dry out quickly. They should look slightly underdone in the center when you pull them from the oven; they will firm up as they cool.
  13. Let the dough rest for 5 minutes after mixing. This allows the coconut flour to fully absorb the liquid, resulting in a better, less crumbly texture.
  14. Add a teaspoon of espresso powder to the dry to intensify the deep chocolate flavor.
