This recipe has been a darling in my household. Everyone LOVES it! After many research here and there, there’s one recipe from The Baking ChocolaTess that seems like the least sweet over many recipes out there. BUT, still too sweet for me. (Confession: I’m trying to stay away from carb and sugar as best as I can! But I’m a lazy keto. So.. I basically still eat carb and sugar in a very small portion).
So what happens then? I twist it!
After I’m finished with the Roasted Green Pepper Hummus, I proceed with the Salsa, and then, I decided to make these cookies as I have already promised my bf since a week ago! hihihi…
One thing tho, start with everything at room temperature. Now, pay attention and be ready to be the most favorite person in your family and friends!
WET INGREDIENTS:
- 1/4 cup of maple syrup (if you don’t have it, then just double the brown sugar)
- 1/4 cup of dark brown sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
DRY INGREDIENTS:
- 1.5 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp sea salt
ANOTHER INGREDIENT: Are you seriously forgetting Dark Chocolate Chips? DON’T! That’s the superstar! I use 1 cup of dark chocolate chips. But if you like another kind of chocolate chips, just do!
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Preheat the oven to 350 F/ 180 C
- In a bowl, sift all the dry ingredients
- In another bowl, add in butter, maple syrup, dark brown sugar and vanilla extract and mix it using an electric mixer on low speed until it’s smooth and creamy (around 3 minutes).
- Then add the egg and mix it another 2 minute.
- Turn off your mixer, and pour all the dry ingredients and mix it with the spatula.
- After it’s mixed, then add the dark chocolate chips and put it in the fridge about 5 – 10 minutes.
- Prepare your baking pan, and using the spoon, make a 2.5cm/ 1-inch ball of the dough. Flat them a bit on the baking pan and give around 1-inch distance. It makes 30 cookies with this size.
- Put them in the oven for 8 – 10 minutes (I use a gas oven and no temperature setting, so I use my eyes, nose and manual thermometer).
- After done, move them to the wire racks to cool completely.
EASY PEASY!
