Chocolate Mocha Shortbread Cookies

Servings: 20


INGREDIENTS

  • 100 g (1 cup) almond flour 
  • 100 g (1/2 cup) Lakanto gold sweetener  – ground to confectionery powder
  • 22 g (¼ cup)  lupin flour or coconut flour  
  • 26 g (1/3 cup)  cocoa powder  
  • 5 g (1 tsp) glucomannan  (aka konjac root powder)
  • 2 g (2 tsp) instant coffee 
  • 4 g (½ tsp) salt – ground fine
  • 150 g (1 ½ sticks) unsalted butter – room temperature

DIRECTIONS

  • 1.   Preheat the oven to 350 F or 175 C. Grease the sides and bottom and then line a removable-bottom pan with parchment paper. Set aside

  • 2.   Put the butter into your mixer bowl, with a paddle attachment on the mixer, and whip to a pale yellow stage. Add the confectionery sweetener and whip to combine.

  • 3.   Place a fine mesh sieve over the bowl and add the almond flour, lupin flour, cocoa powder, espresso coffee powder, salt, glucomannan and salt. Stir to pass through the sieve. Beat on low speed until well combined

  • 4.   OPTION 1: Transfer the dough into your prepared pan. With an offset spatula, spread and even out the cookie dough and smooth the surface

  • 5.   OPTION 2: Wrap the cookie dough in cling wrap, flatten and seal seams. Refrigerate for about 2 hours until well chilled. Remove the dough from fridge and place between 2 pieces of parchment and roll to about ¼ inch or 0.5 cm thick. Use a cookie cutter of your choice and cut out the cookie shapes. Transfer the cut out shapes of dough onto a parchment lined cookie sheet

  • 6.   Place the pan into the middle position of the preheated oven and bake for 10 – 15 minutes

  • 7.   Remove the pan from the oven, leave the cookies in the pan to cool slightly and then carefully transfer onto a cooling rack. Leave cookies to cool to room temperature

  • OPTIONAL decoration methods (not included in macros):
  • 8.  

  • 9.   Sprinkle your confectionery-grind sweetener on top of cookies

  • 10.   Melt some unsweetened chocolate with butter (2 to 1 ratio) and use this to dip the cookies. This is a more dark chocolate flavor; you can add a sweetener to taste

  • 11.   Also, you can use eatable gold sprinkles over the chocolate dipped portion of the cookie

MACRONUTRIENTS CHART

FYI

Store cookies in a container in the fridge. Prep ahead ideas - there are 2 ways to prep ahead these cookies:
  1. Make the cookie dough and either wrap the dough to be shaped later, or prepare to the cut out stage. Store between parchment layers and in an airtight container in your freezer for a couple months. Thaw the dough in the fridge overnight and then bake the chilled cookies as directed.
  2. Bake the cookies, and if desired, dip in chocolate, then place between parchment papers in an airtight, freezer safe container. Let thaw on counter and serve.
