Whole Wheat Cocoa Cookies That Even Make the Most Skeptical (Like My Husband) Reconsider.
Forget about whole wheat cookies “sad”. These treats are simple, with an intense flavor thanks to the cocoa, incredibly soft, and fragrant.
They are egg-free and have even won over the pickiest person in the house (my husband, who turns up his nose when he hears “whole wheat”).
Make them for breakfast, for a healthy but delicious snack, I’m sure they’ll win you over. Come with me, and let’s start baking right away.
Happy recipe, Giusi.

Steps for Whole Wheat Cocoa Cookies
Start by mixing all the dry ingredients in a large bowl… the whole wheat flour, unsweetened cocoa, baking powder, and sugar.
After blending the powders, add the liquid part: the oil and milk (dairy or plant-based). Quickly work with a spoon until the dough appears very soft and workable.
At this point, form balls about 0.9 oz each and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
With the palm of your hands, lightly flatten them to give the final shape.
If you like, decorate the top with almonds or dark chocolate chips before baking.
Bake the cookies in the middle of a preheated static oven at 356°F for a maximum of 18-20 minutes.
Once baked, remove the tray from the oven and let the cookies cool completely.
