Ingredients
- 180 grams Powdered sugar
- 45 grams Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 pinch Salt
- 2 large Egg whites
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 50 grams Dark chocolate chips (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 2
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, cocoa powder, and a pinch of salt until evenly combined.
Step 3
Add the egg whites and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients and stir until a thick, glossy batter forms. The batter may seem stiff at first but will smooth out as you mix. If desired, fold in dark chocolate chips for an extra hit of chocolate.
Step 4
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop spoonfuls of batter onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie as they will spread slightly during baking.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes, or until the cookies are set and the tops have a shiny, crackled appearance.
Step 6
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the cookies to cool for at least 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. The cookies will firm up as they cool.
Step 7
Serve and enjoy your flourless, butterless chocolate cookies! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
