Ingredients
1 cup Unsweetened Cocoa Powder (Dutch-processed)
3/4 cup Powdered Erythritol
2 Large Eggs (room temperature)
1/2 cup Salted Butter (melted and slightly cooled)
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 175 C.
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, whisk together the powdered erythritol and cocoa powder until combined.
Add the room-temperature eggs and vanilla extract to the dry mixture.
Slowly pour in the melted butter while stirring continuously.
Whisk all ingredients vigorously until a thick, glossy dough forms.
Scoop circular portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet.
Flatten each dough mound slightly with the back of a spoon.
Bake at 175 C for exactly 8 minutes to set the edges.
Remove the tray from the oven and allow the cookies to cool completely on the pan before serving.
Notes
Sift your cocoa powder before mixing to eliminate lumps in the final dough.
Do not overbake. These cookies rely on cooling to solidify into a fudge-like texture.
Allow the cookies to remain on the pan until they are fully cold, as they are very soft when warm.
