Eggless Jowar Chocolate Cookies have the melt in the mouth texture, bursting with chocolate flavour and made using Gluten free Jowar (Sorghum) Flour.
Servings: 12 Cookies
Ingredients
- 1 Cup Jowar Flour
- 1/2 Cup Soft Unsalted Butter
- 1/2 Cup Dark Brown Sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon Baking powder **See Notes
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Essense
- 1.5 tbsp Cocoa Powder **See Notes
- Chopped Almonds or Almond Flakes for Garnish Optional
Instructions
- Arrange a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a bowl sift in the Jowar flour, Baking powder and Cocoa Powder
- In another bowl, with a hand blender or with the heel of your hand beat the butter and sugar until it forms a creamy texture. It will change its colour (around 2-3 mins)
- Add Vanilla Essence and give a quick mix.
- Add the dry ingredients to it.
- The mixture will appear or be dry.
- Just assemble everything with hand, you should be able to form a lump as shown in the pic.
- Divide it into equal size balls and arrange on the baking sheet keeping enough space between cookies.
- Refrigerate for 10-15 mins. This step is optional, but it helps in cookies not spreading too much.
- In the meantime preheat the oven to 150 Deg C
- Bake the cookies for 20-25 mins.
- After 20 mins or so, you should be able to smell the cookies. They are ready when they are a bit soft but yet firm to touch.
- Remove and let it cool on the baking sheet itself.
- Once cooled completely, store it in an air tight container.
Notes
- 1 Cup = 235 ml, 1 tablespoon = 15ml, 1 teaspoon = 5ml
- If your mixture is too dry and you are unable to form balls, add a tablespoon of milk at a time to the mixture.
- Baking time varies according to oven, so keep an eye out after 15 mins.
- Baking temperature varies and some oven's are very hot. If you have one of that kind, it is best to reduce the temperature a bit.
- For Gluten Intolerant , please use Gluten Free Baking Powder and Cocoa Powder
