‘Death By Chocolate’ Buckwheat Flour Cookies
Ingredients:
- 12 ounces bittersweet chocolate
- 6 tablespoons butter (unsalted)
- ½ cup organic buckwheat flour
- 2 tablespoons tapioca flour
- ¾ teaspoon baking powder
- 1 ½ teaspoons orange zest (finely grated)
- 2 eggs
- ½ cup + 2 tablespoons organic cane sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
Instructions:
- Pre-heat the oven to 350F and prepare two thin cookie sheets lined with parchment paper.
- Sift together tapioca and buckwheat flours as well as baking powder.
- Melt the butter with 8 ounces of chocolate and orange zest in a pan with the thick bottom on the lowest heat setting. Stir constantly and remove from heat when combined and warm but not too hot.
- Whip eggs, salt, and sugar together using a mixer or an immersion blender until very fluffy and soft. Add vanilla extract using a low setting on the appliance.
- Add chocolate-butter mixture to the whipped eggs and sugar. Combine using a mixer on low.
- Add flour mixture to the batter using the same device.
- Fold in the remaining 4 ounces of chocolate (broken into pieces).
- Wait until the batter cools a bit so it has the consistency of brownie batter and uses a spoon to scoop cookies onto the baking sheet. You can top them off with more chocolate chunks.
- Bake two sheets at the same time, one at the top and one at the bottom for 8-12 minutes. Switch them halfway rotating front-to-back in the meantime. Let cool before removing from the baking sheets.
These fantastic buckwheat flour cookies will make the wait for an effective gluten sensitivity treatment truly enjoyable. They taste incredible and will make great comfort food for cold winter days (or any other day) when you need an extra boost of something truly good.
