This morning we are in a thoughtful mood, so we are making SPICY CHOCOLATE GINGER COOKIES
You need
200 g of grated cocoa beans or a bar of bitter chocolate
1.5 glasses with a slide flour
1 tsp. ground Ceylon cinnamon
1 tsp. ground dried ginger root
1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp. ground cloves
1 tsp. soda
1 tbsp. dark cocoa powder
120 g coconut oil or creamy
1 tbsp. fresh ginger (grated)
1/2 tbsp. coconut sugar + a little more sugar for rolling goodies
1/4 tbsp. honey – for those who like sweeter cookies
- Cut the grated cocoa beans into small pieces and set aside.
- Mix together all the dry ingredients: flour, ground ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and cocoa powder.
- Combine coconut oil with grated fresh ginger.
- Pour crushed coconut sugar into the oil mixture and mix everything together. If desired, pour honey there as well.
- Add lemon juice or boiling soda to the dry mixture, pour in the sugar-butter mixture, mix everything thoroughly. Finally, add chopped grated cocoa beans to the dough.
- Wrap the dough in cling film and leave in the fridge for two hours.
- Preheat the oven to 160 C. Form small balls from the dough and roll them in sugar. Put future cookies on a baking sheet at a distance of a couple of centimeters from each other.
- Bake until the cookies are covered with cracks (about 10-15 minutes).
- Allow cookies to cool before serving.
- Bon appetit!
