Some details about these chocolate coconut oil cookies
Flavor: we find in this recipe the good taste of chocolate chip cookies! Coconut oil is very slightly noticeable. Brown sugar combined with whole sugar reinforces the indulgence of chocolate.
Texture : they are crispy and chewy. It depends a lot on your cooking and your oven. The more you bake these chocolate coconut oil cookies, the crispier they will be. If you like soft cookies, decrease the baking time.
Difficulty level : ultra-simple! Just be careful not to use hot coconut oil. As usual in baking, it is important to bring the ingredients to room temperature before starting the recipe.
How to make cookies without chocolate butter?
Before starting the recipe, melt the coconut oil in the microwave or bain-marie and let it come back. at room temperature. In a first container, mix the coconut oil, brown sugar and whole cane sugar. Then we add the egg and vanilla.
Apart, in another container, quickly mix the flour, baking soda, salt. Then they are incorporated into the previous mixture. At this stage, we mix just right to homogenize the dough.
Then we crush the chocolate in large pieces using a good knife. For this, you can use pistoles (like me) or a pastry chocolate bar. They are then added to the cookie dough, keeping a little bit of chocolate for the decoration.
Using a tablespoon, take a little dough and place it on a baking sheet covered with baking paper. We space the balls well because they spread out a lot.
After cooking, they are left to cool a little on a baking sheet to strengthen them, then the coconut oil chocolate cookies are placed on a grid until completely cooled. You can also eat them lukewarm still melting!
My tips for successful coconut oil chocolate chip cookies
If the dough seems too liquid to be shaped into balls (it happens, depending on your flour, your oil, etc.), do not hesitate to place it for a few minutes in the fridge.
Before placing the chocolate coconut oil cookies in the oven, I place the pieces of chocolate kept aside on top of each ball, they will be even more beautiful!
To bring out the chocolate taste even more, sprinkle your cookies with Fleur de sel out of the oven, it's a real delight, I assure you.

Hello, thank you very much for this recipe, it's not easy to find lactose-free recipes! I have a quick question, is it possible to freeze the raw dough in small, ready-to-bake balls? I don't know what it's like with coconut oil in the freezer.
Lilie bakery
Hello Laura, yes it is quite possible to freeze them, about 3 months. You must first freeze them well spaced for about an hour and then you can put them together in an airtight freezer bag. Goodbye :)
