Gluten Free Fudgy Chewy Chocolate Cookies
These gluten free cookies are full of chocolate goodness and highly addictive. They are equally fudgy and chewy and are best served with a glass of milk or cup of coffee!
Ingredients
- 4 egg whites
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with silicone mats or parchment paper, set aside.
- Using a stand mixer beat the egg whites and vanilla on high speed until soft peaks form, about 5-6 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, cocoa powder and salt until it's free of lumps and white streaks.
- Add half of the dry ingredients to the egg white mixture and fold with a rubber spatula until no streaks remain. Then, fold in the remaining dry ingredients until no streaks remain. Lastly stir in the chocolate chips or chopped chocolate.
- Scoop 14-16 equally sized portions of the batter onto the prepared baking sheets about an inch or so apart.
- Bake the cookies for 15-17 minutes. The surface of the cookies will appear dry and they will start to crack around the edges.
- Let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before moving to a cooling rack.
