Chewy Chocolate Brownie Cookies

Cookie season is upon us and to be honest, cookie season for me is year round 😂 But, as I started to look at the cookies on my blog, I realized that I don’t have many super chocolate-y cookies. If you are loving cookies as much as I am, you have got to get my free cookie ebook! I share 25 amazingly delicious cookie recipes to get you sorted for the holiday season.

You know how brownies have those crisp edges and and are chewy gooey in the center? You know how they have that flakey top, but that soft, satisfying middle? These cookies are dead ringers for brownies. You know, except they’re in cookie shape and have those chewy edges all around.

And, if we’re bring honest, the cookie dough is a dead ringer for brownie batter too. I ate it. From a spoon. Even though salmonella and all those potential hazards. Now, I’m not recommending you do the same, I’m just saying I did because I just couldn’t not. But like, don’t eat raw cookie dough.

This is a super simple recipe so let’s jump right into it. First, melt the butter and chocolate chips in a large bowl, either in a double boiler or in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds. Whisk together until completely smooth.

Add the coconut sugar and eggs to the bowl and whisk until combined.

Add the blanched almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until combined.

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and use two tablespoons to drop a ball of dough onto the sheet. I fit 6 – 8 cookies per batch. The dough is sticky, so using spoons or a cookie dough scooper is the best bet to get a round mound.

Bake for 10 minutes. Then, remove the baking sheet and allow to sit for 15 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack. I sprinkled my cookies with flaked sea salt while they were sitting on the baking sheet but this is optional if you don’t want to add the salt on top.
