Flourless Fudgy Cookies

These cookies caught my eye on Pinterest. Reading over the ingredient list, I assumed they were a meringue based confection with whipped egg whites as the base. I was wrong. The egg whites are simply mixed with the remaining ingredients to create a rich, chewy and fudgy cookie studded with dark chocolate chips and walnuts. Note: While these cookies may be gluten free, they certainly are not calorie free . . . but they are worth every bite in our opinion! The recipe came from Modern Honey blog. 



Flourless Fudgy Cookies    Yield: 16 to 18 cookies

3 cups powdered sugar

3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, regular but Dutch-processed also works

1/4 teaspoon salt

4 egg whites (large) eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla

1 1/2 cups dark chocolate chips 

1 cup walnuts chopped

Topping: Sea salt flakes, optional 

  1. Preheat oven to 350° F.
  2. In large bowl, add powdered sugar, cocoa powder, and salt. Stir.
  3. Add egg whites and vanilla and stir well to combine.
  4. Fold in chocolate chips and walnuts.
  5. Chill for at least 30 minutes.
  6. Spoon on silicon-lined baking sheets (to prevent sticking).
  7. Bake for 11 to 15 minutes or until they edges start to crack. 
  8. Let cool on baking sheets.
  9. Sprinkle with sea salt if desired.
