Chocolate Brownie Cookies
20 min 
10-12 cookies 
It is generally perceived that brownies are rich, soft and gooey (and sometimes overly sweet). On the other hand, cookies tend to be crunchy and although a bit moist in the middle, they tend to get harder as they cool down. Now imaging the perfect combination of a cookie that is as sticky and moist as a brownie, yet crisp enough on the outside so that your fingers don’t get all smudged up. This is exactly what these Triple Chocolate Brownie Cookies are. Fudgy and decadent chocolate brownie cookies that are easy to make and are ready in under 20 minutes! Nourishing Niki has used less processed and thus a little bit ‘healthier’ ingredients, such as wholewheat flour instead of plain flour and Food Thoughts Dark Chocolate Chips that contain 70% cacao solids, instead of the generic milk choc chips that tend to be high on sugar. The outcome? A healthier treat that is incredibly delicious! These Triple Chocolate Brownie Cookies are a chocolate-lover’s dream.
You will need
- 80g plain wholewheat flour
- 60g Food Thoughts Organic Cocoa Powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- 100g Food Thoughts Dark Chocolate Chips
- 250g Greek-style yoghurt or coconut yoghurt (room temperature)
- 90g coconut sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 80g White Chocolate Chips
Method
Preheat oven to 180°C / 160°C fan and prepare two baking trays with a sheet of parchment paper.
Add flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt to a large mixing bowl and whisk to combine.
Add dark chocolate to a heat-proof bowl and melt in the microwave, stopping every 30 seconds to stir. Once melted, add yoghurt, sugar and vanilla to the chocolate and mix until combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and fold until almost combined then fold in the white chocolate chips.
Scoop the cookie batter onto your baking tray, allowing around 2 tbsp of mixture per cookie. Flatten with a wet spoon or spatula then bake for 8-10 minutes.
Once baked and still warm, add a couple more chocolate chips on top. Allow cookies to cool before moving them, as they will be quite fragile when warm!
