Flourless Chocolate Brownie Cookies

November 18, 2014





There are days when a compulsion to eat something rich and chocolatey suddenly hits you. And no matter how many glasses of water you drink to trick your mind into thinking that you are full and that you don't need any more carbs in your body, the need for chocolate never really leaves your head and it just keeps on getting stronger and stronger every hour. When that compulsion comes, try these flourless chocolate cookies - rich, chewy, very chocolatey (with three different types of chocolate in it), and very easy to make.

No, these cookies are not diet food. So try not to eat too many of these in one go. "Try" being the operative word because I'm quite sure you won't be able to resist them. (Well, I wasn't able to.)

I love that these cookies have different textures - crisp around the edges, chewy in the middle, and nubby and chunky all throughout because of the chocolate chips and cacao nibs. These cookies will definitely satiate any chocolate cravings, any time of the day.
