Hot Chocolate Cookies Recipe
These gluten-free hot cocoa cookies use Wildly Organic Hot Chocolate Mix to bring you all the flavors and comfort of hot chocolate. Traditional hot chocolate mix is loaded with excess sugar and modified oils. However, Wildly Organic hot chocolate mix contains only three ingredients: coconut sap sugar, coconut milk, and cacao powder. Everything you need to make a creamy cup of hot chocolate without all the artificial ingredients and refined sugars!
Cacao powder has been said to be loaded with calcium, antioxidants, and iron. Using the hot chocolate mix as the base for these cookies means that there are no hidden ingredients. No additives. Just pure hot chocolate flavor.
The cookies also use Wildly Organic Almond Flour as the base of the cookie. Almond flour helps slow the release of the sugars in the cookies and gives them a more satiating feeling.
Using coconut sugars in the cookie recipe means that you don’t need as much as you normally would with traditional cookies. Coconut syrup is similar to maple syrup in the way it’s processed only thicker. This means that while the cookies definitely come out light and fluffy, it’s hard to eat too many of them. They’re rich in the most perfect of ways.
These hot chocolate are the indulgence you didn’t know you needed. Like regular hot chocolate, these cookies are best when warm out of the oven. However, they’re pretty addictive cooled also. Whip up a double batch and store some in the freezer for when you need a cookie fix or, portion some out to share as gifts.. everyone loves chocolate!
