we’ve made it to Wednesday, that deserves a still warm from the oven flourless fudge cookie I think
I feel like I am baking
all. the. time.
but my kids have been complaining that we never have anything to eat for dessert.
I decided to surprise them cookies,
and not just any cookies,
flourless fudge cookies.
It’s almost like a brownie and a cookie got mixed together, only without any flour at all.
They are soft and fudgy, and loaded with chocolate flavor. These flourless cookies could possibly be the best cookie I have ever made or eaten. One bite and I knew I was in trouble. If I didn’t hide the others, they would not have survived ’til the kids got home.
A few cookies with a tall glass of milk, and I see homework getting done with out a so much as a groan or grumble. Makes baking when it’s almost 90 degrees outside totally worth it #it’stooearlytobesohot
Ingredients
- 1 cup butter, softened
- 1 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 eggs
- 1 Tbsp vanilla
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 2 cups unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 cup chocolate chunks (or chips)
- sugar for rolling dough
Instructions
- using a stand or hand mixer on high speed, cream together the butter, sugars, and salt until light and fluffy
- add the eggs one at a time, and then add the vanilla
- reduce the speed to low and add the baking powder and cocoa powder
- stir in the chocolate chunks or chips
- chill the cookie dough for at least one hour
- pre-heat the oven to 375 F.
- using a tablespoon, scoop dough, roll into a ball, and then roll in sugar
- place cookie on a parchment lined baking sheet
- bake 10 minutes, until the edges are set
- cool on baking sheets 5 minutes, then move to rack
Notes
recipe adapted from King Arthur Flour
In my warm kitchen, chilling the dough for an hour was not quite enough, it was still very soft when rolles, so I left it in the refrigerator for 2 hours. The dough can be chilled up to over night, but once rolled, make sure to flatten them slightly before baking.
enjoy!

Dear Heather, I love flourless chocolate cake..I can even recall the first time I tried…it was an experience. Flourless chocolate cookies I can only imagine are just as irresistible! These look wonderful. xo, Catherine
oh yes, that is my husbands all time favorite dessert
These sound absolutely amazing. I stopped making brownies because a little shop by us makes them better than I could. I have got to give your cookies a go. I bet they will be my new favorite.
I stopped making brownies because my pants don;t fit anymore ? the cookies though are going to be just ad hard for me to pass up
I bet this are AMAZING right out of the oven! They sound amazing and the pictures are great.

Oh my! Cookies hot out of the oven are the bestest!
oh you know it!
They look perfect. I love flourless chocolate anything, and this looks like a prime-time example of deliciousness.
thanks! even this non-chocolate lover loved them
I *just* ate a gluten free brownie but I’m sure I could put away a few of these as well. They look delicious!
they’re small so I’m sure a few would fit ?
My brain is saying FEED ME CHOCOLATE. You say these are like a cookie and a brownie combined. My instinct is to grab all of these right now! OMG, what a great cookie, Heather! Gotta try these little flourless gems soon. ?
I had to restrain myself ? they are that good
Mmmmmmmm! These look sooo chocolaty!
thanks Valerie
Please come add these to my cookie jar – they look amazing!
I wish I could ?
I could really go for one of those cookies right now! I love that they’re flourless but also how thin they are. They remind me of gingersnaps, only better because…well there’s chocolate!
the original recipe did include ginger – ? but I thought they would be so good just plain chocolate – and they are indeed
Yum. I love all flourless cookies. these look yummy!
thanks! of all the flour less cookies I’ve tried, these are by far our favorite
These look divine Almost like chewy gingersnap. Pinning to try later.

Making these for Passover. Can they be made ahead of time and frozen or will the end result suffer?
I have never had any left to freeze but wrapped properly, they should be fine
