Equipment

Ingredients

  • â…” cup butter soft
  • â…“ cup sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder unsweetened
  • 1 cup almond flour

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, cream the butter with the sugar.
  • Add the cocoa powder to it and mix some more until fully incorporated.
  • Lastly, add the almond flour and mix until it holds as a dough.
  • Wrap it in cling film and refrigerate it for 30 minutes to an hour.
  • Before getting the dough out of the fridge, preheat the oven to 350F and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  • Using an ice cream scoop, scoop the dough and place it on the tray. Make sure to space them enough as the cookie will spread a little.
  • Bake for 14 minutes at 350F.
  • Allow the cookies to cool before eating them or they will crumble.

Notes

  • Do not skip the chilling part of the process as the butter needs to solidify before going in the oven.
  • Allow to cool down once out of the oven: This cookie is supposed to be crumbly and buttery.
  • Store 4-5 days in an air-tight container. 
  • Freeze the dough and thaw it out completely before using.
