Chocolate Arrowroot Cookies (No Gluten, No Sugar)

"This is a alteration of my Recipe #401548, a ginger version. These are a tasty little chocolate cookie without sugar or grains. If you didn't want nuts, you could leave them out but might want a bit more arrowroot. These are mixed all in the saucepan you start with and are so good I usually make a double batch."

  1. Very rich, deep chocolate flavor. I added 1 square of 90 percent chocolate and they turned out absolutely perfect for my tastebuds :) You have to like chocolate cookies which are not very sweet, otherwise you might be disappointed. This will be a keeper for me. Thanks for posting! Made for Comfort Cafe Snowqueen's Round 2010.
     
  2. This recipe is confusing. It calls for "20 g almonds." Does that mean ground up? Well, that's what I did. I find that most cookie recipes are too sweet, but this one isn't nearly sweet enough. These cookies have a bitter, chalky taste. I've made other cookies with arrowroot before, like those in "Nourishing Traditions," and they are good. These cookies are not—they have way too much arrowroot. I won't be making these again.
     
  3. it tastes good. mildly sweet. the instruction said roll into balls, but mine pretty much stayed that way. they would've turned out better if flattened.

  1. Food process or crush the nuts until they are the size of a sesame seed or two. Once all the ingredients are mixed and rolled into balls flatten them onto the baking tray.
