Ingredients

Instructions

  • In a food processor, process coconut sugar and avocado until smooth. If necessary, you can give the coconut sugar a blend beforehand to break down any large chunks.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together cacao powder, salt and baking powder. Transfer avocado mixture into the bowl and fold with a spatula until evenly incorporated. The batter should be a little wetter than your average cookie dough, but should be scoop-able (not runny).
  • Fold in chocolate chips if using, then using a cookie scoop or ice cream scoop, place onto a lined baking sheet, leaving at least 1 inch of space between each scoop. Using lightly damp hands, you can pat down slightly, as the cookies will not spread too much when baking.
  • Bake at 350F for 10-12 minutes, until tops of cookies are baked and edges are lightly cooked. Allow to cool completely (don't worry, they'll stay soft!) before removing from cookie sheet.

Notes

Secrets to Success

To make these avocado cookies successfully, I highly recommend using a non-stick baking mat or parchment paper. Because I like to bake them and maintain a light chew, I find it easiest to use something non-stick.
I highly recommend keeping an eye on these cookies and baking by feel/desired texture. Since they're super rich in chocolate content, they're naturally darker in color, which means it's harder to tell if they're getting a little too baked.
If you find that your cookie dough is too wet to be workable, you can add a tablespoon or two of arrowroot flour or other flour of choice if desired. I find it unnecessary in most cases, but since avocado size can vary a little bit, it's an option if you end up with a mixture that is too wet. Alternatively, add a little more cacao powder to the mix so that it's a little easier to work with.

Storage Tips

Store leftover vegan avocado cookies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
