- Portions: 18 pieces
- Cooking methods: Oven
Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 1/4 cups powdered sugar (confectioners' sugar)
- 6 tbsp neutral vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup milk (or plant-based milk such as soy, almond, etc.)
- 2 tsp baking powder
- vanilla extract
- a pinch of salt
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
Steps
In a large bowl, sift the flour, cocoa and baking powder. Add the powdered sugar and a pinch of salt.
Make a well in the center, pour in the oil and the milk with a little vanilla extract to flavor, and begin mixing. Combine all the ingredients until you obtain a homogeneous dough.
Add the chocolate chips and gently fold them into the dough to distribute them evenly.
Divide the dough into two portions and shape two logs, slightly flattening the tops. Place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, leaving some space between them.
Transfer to a preheated oven at 356°F and bake for about 18–20 minutes, or until the logs are cooked through and slightly crisp on the outside.
Then remove from the oven and let cool for about 10–15 minutes. Use a sharp knife to slice the logs into pieces about 3/8–3/4 inches thick, similar to cantucci.
For crunchier large cookies, place the slices back on the tray and bake at 320°F for an additional 10–15 minutes, turning them halfway through baking. Before serving, let the egg-free cocoa cookies cool completely on a wire rack.
Bon appétit and.. see you next recipe!
