  • Prep Time: 5 mins
  • Cook Time: 10 mins
  • Total Time: 15 mins

Yield: 10 cookies 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flax + 3 tablespoons warm water)*
  • 1/3 cup creamy nut or seed butter (I love using creamy tahini but anything works)
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup or honey
  • 3 tablespoons liquid coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cup almond meal or almond flour
  • 3 tablespoons coconut flour (you can try adding in more almond flour/meal if you don’t have!)
  • 2 tablespoons cacao powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (code RACHL for free shipping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line baking sheet with parchment paper
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the egg, nut butter, maple syrup, coconut oil, vanilla extract together until smooth
  3. Mix in the flours and baking powder (NOT the cacao yet!) until well combined
  4. Fold in chocolate chips then split the dough into 2 equal balls
  5. Add one of the large balls of dough to a medium bowl and mix in the cacao powder to make brownie dough until it is combined and the dough turned a darker shade (like brownie brown!)
  6. Scoop about 1 tablespoon of chocolate chip cookie dough and roll into a ball and add to baking sheet and repeat for remaining chocolate chip cookie dough
  7. Scoop about 1 tablespoon of brownie dough and roll into a ball and add next to each cookie dough ball on baking sheet
  8. Gently pinch the brownie and cookie dough together, making sure there are no gaps to make the half cookie/half brownie cookie! Leave about 1 inch of space between each
  9. Bake in oven for 10-12 minutes or until ready
  10. Store in airtight container for 5 days or freezer for 2 months
