Oops! I apologize for the lack of posts on my part but things have been crazy busy. In the past two weeks, I have been swamped with finals, moving out of the flat, mom's visit in Montreal for a week, and moving into Livia's. Finally, I am catching up on shows and relaxing lots! Anyhow, now that I have a baking/cooking partner (the amazing Livia) I will be posting more stuff on the blog. Sorry that the pictures are so bad, it is getting harder and harder to take nice pictures without a professional photographer around! Maybe I will start employing Amina! Anyhow, these cookies were delicious and VERY healthy. They are gluten free and only have 110 calories per cookie, and 8 grams of fat. Livia found the recipe in her magazine 'Clean Eating' - I highly recommend their magazines!
Ingredients:
- 1 cup unsalted almond butter, stirred well.
- 3/4 cup sucanat (we used normal sugar)
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- 3 oz dark chocolate broken into pieces (recipe calls for 70% or greater)
- Preheat oven to 350 F.
- In a bowl, mix the first five ingredients until well blended.
- Add the chocolate pieces and blend well.
- On a baking sheet, drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned.
- Let cool.
- Enjoy!
* You could add some white chocolate chips
* You could substitute the almond butter with cashew butter
