These rich almond flour are the perfect combination of chocolate and coffee!

This chocolate chip mocha cookie recipe is based on my popular chewy grain-free chocolate chip cookie recipe.

Just like my other recipe, this healthy cookie recipe is made with almond flour. Therefore, this cookie is naturally grain-free.

Because of their rich chocolate flavor and a hint of espresso, these delicious cookies are the perfect afternoon pick me up.

Although they are already bursting with coffee flavor, I like to have mine with a warm homemade latte.

What is mocha? What is mocha flavor?

Mocha is short for mocha latte which is a coffee drink made with chocolate syrup. Mocha flavor usually refers for anything made with the flavor of coffee and chocolate.

These mocha cookies are made with cocoa powder, instant espresso, and espresso chocolate chips to give them the perfect balance of mocha flavor.

What kitchen tools will I need to make chocolate chip mocha cookies?

You will need a few basic cooking tools to make these almond flour chocolate chip cookies.

To start you will need a set of mixing bowls and a whisk. Once your ingredients are mixed with a whisk, you will need a flat spatula to fold the ingredients together.

Next, you will need a baking sheet and parchment paper to bake your cookies on.

Then, I like to use a 1.5 tbsp measuring scoop to scoop the cookie dough onto the baking sheet.

Let’s make some Chocolate Chip Mocha Cookies

Step 1: Mix and fold mocha flavored cookie dough

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 cookie dough

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 mocha cookies

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.

You can freeze these cookies too! They will stay fresh in the freezer for up to 3 months.

    This is hands down the best cookie I’ve ever tasted. I was able to easily bake this with my son, Kris, and we both thoroughly enjoyed the outcome. These are seriously unreal and I’m addicted. Can’t wait to make these for our family holiday gatherings.
