Step 1: Mix and fold
First, combine egg, coconut oil, and light brown sugar in a large mixing bowl. Then, whisk together almond flour, cocoa powder, espresso powder, salt and baking soda in a separate mixing bowl.
Next, fold dry ingredients into wet ingredients with a flat spatula and mix until thoroughly combined. Finally, fold in espresso chocolate chips.
Step 2: Chill
Take your bowl of dough, cover, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. While the dough chills, preheat the oven to 350F.
Step 3: scoop and bake
Once the dough has chilled, line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Then, using a 1.5 tbsp measuring scoop, scoop 12 even dough balls onto the baking sheet. Next, place the baking sheet in the oven to bake at 350F for 15 minutes.
step 4: cool and Enjoy!
After 15 minutes remove the cookies from the oven. Allow them to cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet and then transfer them to a cooling rack.
How should I store my chocolate chip mocha cookies?
These cookies should be kept covered on the counter in an airtight container. They will stay soft and fresh for up to 5 days.
