Chocolate Avocado Cookies

Yield 12 Cookies
Don't let the word avocado scare you here - they just replace butter (or margarine), and add a whole lot of yumminess and nutrients!
My 5-year-old told me that these are the "best cookies in the whole wide world" when I made them.
Try them for yourself!
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup avocado flesh (very ripe, but not brown)
- ½ cup honey OR coconut sugar
- 1 egg
- ½ cup dark cocoa powder
- 50 g. dark chocolate chunks or chips
- ½ tsp. baking soda
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350° F.
- In a bowl using a hand mixer, mix together avocado and honey or coconut sugar until smooth. Add in the egg.
- Mix in the cocoa powder and baking soda - or better: blend everything together in a food processor, so easy.
- Stir in chocolate chunks.
- Using two spoons place dollops of cookie dough in a baking sheet with parchment paper. The cookie won't spread as much as usual cookies when baking, so make sure to flatten them out a bit with the back of the spoon.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the cookies don't stick as much to the paper as they did before baking.
- Cool down. Store in an airtight container in the fridge.
