Ingredients
The exact ingredient quantities can be found at the bottom of this page.
To make this low calorie double chocolate cookie you will need:
- Flour – I used regular plain/all-purpose flour. For a gluten-free version, try gluten-free flour or oat flour. This cookie works with oat flour but it is a little tougher in texture.
- 0 Calorie brown sugar– Okay so I am seriously obsessed with 0 calorie brown sugar but you can opt for good ‘ol stevia or any 0 calories granulated sweetener. I’ve found 0 calorie brown sugar to produce the best cookie texture though!
- Unsweetened Cocoa powder – Unsweetened cocoa powder is super low in calories whilst still having a rich chocolaty flavor.
- Baking soda – Baking soda will help the cookie spread a little.
- Applesauce – Applesauce is a great alternative to eggs and butter. This helps keep the calories super low whilst holding the cookie in shape!
- Chocolate chunks or chips – This recipe calls for a small amount of chocolate. I find that dark chocolate chunks or chips work best (I just chopped up 1 small chocolate square). You can use any chocolate of your choosing, though. To make this recipe completely sugar-free, you can use sugar-free chocolate chips. For this recipe to be vegan, make sure to use vegan chocolate chips or chunks.
HOW TO MAKE THIS COOKIE
This cookie is seriously so easy to make! You can have it ready in just 3 simple steps.
- In a small bowl, mix together all the ingredients except the chocolate chunks/chips until well combined.
- Fold in the chocolate chips and form the dough into a ball. Place onto a piece of parchment paper or microwave safe dish. Microwave on high for 30-60 seconds, depending on your microwave.
- Remove from the microwave and allow 1-3 minutes for the cookie to cool before enjoying!
*For reference, this cookie took 40 seconds to be done in my 700W microwave.
For best results, microwave in 10-15 second bursts. This decreases the chances of this cookie burning which can happen very easily so be sure to keep a close eye on the microwave!
