Triple Chocolate Chip Cookies (A no flour recipe) deserts
Makes 20 cookies, 1 serving: 45 calories,1.4 g fat, 2 g protein, 9 g carbohydrates, 0mg cholesterol. 2 g fiber, 32 mg sodium
Ingredients
½ tsp vanilla extract
¹⁄³ cup unsweetened cocoa powder, sifted *
1 cup canned white cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
2 tbsp light agave syrup or another sugar like Stevia
3 large egg whites (fluff
1cup granulated raw sugar
¼ cup dark chocolate-covered cacao nibs
¼ cup chocolate chips
Directions
Preheat the oven to 375˚F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and spray lightly with cooking spray. Set aside.
In the bowl of a food processor, combine vanilla, cocoa, cannellini beans, and the agave syrup, and blend the mixture until smooth, about 3 minutes, scraping down the side of the bowl halfway through blending.
In the bowl of a mixer fitted with a whip attachment, beat the egg whites until they form soft peaks. Gradually beat in your sweetener. Continue to beat the whites until they are creamy and nearly stiff. Add 1/3 of the egg-white mixture to the cocoa bean mixture in the food processor. Blend to combine, for about 30 seconds. In 2 batches, fold the lightened cocoa mixture into the egg whites until they are almost fully combined. Add cacao nibs to the batter. Fold batter until cacao nibs are evenly dispersed and cocoa mixture is completely incorporated.
*Drop mounded spoonfuls of batter onto the prepared sheets. Spread batter out to form cookies about 2½ inches in diameter. Sprinkle the chocolate chips on top of the cookies.
*Bake for 20 minutes, rotating the pans one turn halfway through baking. Using a metal spatula, transfer cookies to wire racks to cool.
With 3 kinds of chocolate for flavor in this recipe, you won’t miss the fat and sugar in the standard version of this most beloved cookie. You can cut back on the sugar, I do. Remember the chocolate chips have sugar in them. My tastes buds are train to require less sugar...when you eat less sugars. Taste the dough and begin here.
This has gobs of fiber in the legumes (white beans has to 1/4 cup = 7 grams of fiber. Beans can be sub. for shortening or eggs. *I use Hershey's dark chocolate coco powder for recipes calling for chocolate that make it even more chocolate, which is good for you....

Note: 1/2 coconut or almond flour can be substitute in any baking recipe. There is a almond flour cake recipe in these posts. (both are nut recipes, basically.)
