I made these tonight and they were delicious! They were the first really good Paleo chocolate chip cookies I’ve had (and I have had a few). I ran out of coconut oil, so I used mostly butter a little coconut oil, and it seemed to work just fine. They are also great without the nuts, if anyone is wondering. Thank you so much for sharing these!
Whenever I have tried to cook with coconut flour my batter always seems to be really runny. E.g. in this receipe where it says to ‘mould the cookies with hands’ this just wouldn’t have been possible – they would have been puddles on my parchment instead! So I just eyeballed more coconut flour in until it looked like it was holding together a bit more densely. When I checked on them after 15min though they’d all melted into one another! I’ve tried twice to make the coconut chocolate cake and end up with two layers within the cake – a dry crumbly part and a gooey eggy part. I thought it was my lack of vigorous mixing at first but now I’m wondering if there is something ‘lost in translation’ when I’m trying these receipes, since I’m in the UK. Maybe my paleo ingredients are not optimal? Maybe I’m not converting the amounts right? Help! đŸ™‚
I made these yesterday on our snow day. Wonderful! Snow day baking tradition saved while keeping the lifestyle!
