Double Chocolate Cookies

Double Chocolate Cookies

This healthy cookie recipe was included in the Country Heat meal plan, so this weekend I whipped some up with the kids.  They love helping me in the kitchen, especially when there are chocolate chips around.  

These were really good!  Kinda tasted like a brownie.  

You'll Need:

• nonstick cooking spray
• 1/4 cup extra -virgin coconut oil, melted
• 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
• 1/3 cup pure maple syrup (or honey)
• 1/4 cup canned lite coconut milk (you could also use almond milk)
• 1/3 cup coconut flour (Walmart does carry this)
• 1/4 cup whole wheat flour
• 1/2 cup all natural cocoa powder
• 1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips (you could also use slivered almonds, chopped pecans, dried cherries or raisins)

To Make:

1. Preheat oven to 350*
2. Lightly coat baking sheet with spray.  Set aside
3. Combine coconut oil, applesauce, maple syrup, and coconut milk in a medium bowl, mix well. Set aside
4. Combine coconut flour, whole wheat flour, and cocoa powder in a small bowl; mix well
5. Add flour mixture to applesauce mixture; mix until blended
6. Drop by teaming Tbsp onto prepared baking sheet
7. Bake for 12 minutes or until firm

One cookie would equal one yellow container count for the day.

ENJOY!
