Deep Dark Chocolate Cookies-No butter & Flourless - Picklee (1)

By Jordan Reilly

If you thought the healthy chocolate brownies were too good to be true then you’re in for a real treat…These cookies are amazing-super intense and fudgy, and the best part is that there’s no butter or flour in these puppies! If there was ever a “healthy” double chocolate cookie, this just may be it!

Flour-less Dark Chocolate Cookies-recipe adapted from the Divine baker

Makes about24 cookies

Each cookie is approx. 72 calories

Ingredients:

  • Nonstick vegetable oil spray
  • 1 1/2 cups bittersweet chocolate chips (about 9 ounces)
  • 3 large egg whites, room temperature
  • 2 cups powdered sugar, divided (plus 1/2 cupfor cookie coating)
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray 2 large baking sheets with nonstick spray. Set aside.
  2. Melt 1 cup chocolate chips in glass bowl in microwave, stirring frequently, about 2 minutes. Set aside and let cool slightly.
  3. Using electric mixer, beat whites in large bowl to soft peaks. Gradually beat in 1 cup sugar. Continue beating until mixture resembles soft marshmallow cream
  4. Whisk 1 cup sugar, cocoa, cornstarch, and salt in medium bowl to blend. Then, on a low speed, add these dry ingredients into the marshmallow cream mixture
  5. Next, add remaining 1/2 cup chocolate chips to lukewarm chocolate mixture (dough will become very stiff).
  6. Add chocolate mixture to cream mixture and blend well.
  7. Place remaining 1/2 cup powdered sugar in bowl. Roll 1 rounded tablespoon dough into ball; roll in sugar, coating thickly. Place on prepared sheet. Repeat with remaining dough, spacing 2 inches apart.
  8. Bake until puffed and tops crack, about 10 minutes. Cool on sheets, then on rack for 10 minutes.

  4. I made these last night and served them to some of my extended family, everyone loved them. Thanks for the great recipe! I loved chocolate and the fact that they are only 72 calories. And my sister is gluten free so the fact that they are flourless is great also.

    1. Nicky,

      I’ve never tried microwaving these. I suppose you could try to zap them in the microwave. I’d start out slow though and be careful. I’m not sure how they’ll turn out in there without the flour?

      1. I tried the recipe in the microwave and they turned out fine! I just cooked them for 2 minutes per batch.

  7. Just wondering, could I substitute potato starch in for the corn starch? My mom is allergic to flour, dairy and corn so this could be a really awesome thing if I can do that!

    Reply

    1. Good question! My guess would be yes, but I’m not 100% sure.

      Does anyone else know if this would work?

      Reply

      1. yes, potato starch can be added one for one with corn starch. i like potato starch better anyways!

        Reply

        1. Cornstarch is made from corn kernels and is gluten free. How does this have anything to do with flour?

          Reply

          1. Duh…I’m sorry I didn’t read the corn part. I’m so sorry!

      2. I cook gluten-free. Other subs for corn starch are SWEET rice flour, sorgum flour and tapioca flour. I often use one part tapioca flour with two parts gluten-free flour blends.

        SWEET RICE FLOUR is available in Asuan stores or some health food stores. Regular white rice flour is okay, too.
        Sweet rice flour and brown rice flour mixed half and half make great angel Food cake, too.
        King Arthur flour has a nutritious gluten-free baking mix that would also work in this recipe.
        Bob’s Red Mill Pizza Crust Mix is great, too.
        Krusteaz Gluten-free Pancake mix is good, but has levening.
        Some gluten-free blends are nutritionally void. Mostly white rice flour and potato starch. Betty Crocker gluten-free mixes are a good example of empty calories.

  10. I made these today with semi-sweet chocolate chips they seemed to stay quite “doughy” and the bottoms stuck to the pan and the cookies stayed to moist? Not sure if that’s because I used the semi-sweet or not? I did cook the second set longer and they seemed to be better. Either way the are tasty and very chocolatey!

  13. Very delicious. The mixture was a but soupy so I had to add more powder cocoa. I also shook the powder sugar on the cookie. There was no way I could roll the dough into the sugar because it was too gooey. The also baked for about 15 minutes. It was amazing!!! Thank you for the recipe

    1. Not sure what was different between your making it and me, but mine were SUPER thick and doughy before I cooked them… they’re currently in the oven, so fingers crossed!

      Reply

  14. Okay I take it back, if I were to bake these cookies again which I will I will bake for 10 minutes as suggested. The next day they were a bit crunchy baked at 15 minutes. So to keep the moisture, bake as suggested. Oh and I also used semi sweet chocolate chip and it worked great.
    Thanks

  15. Would you consider these to be gluten free?

    Reply

    1. Check the labels on your ingredients carefully – especially the chocolate. But if your ingredients are safe, they should be!

      Reply

  16. I had the biggest chocolate craving this evening! So I decided it was time to put this recipe to the test. I just finished baking these cookies and boy did they do the trick! But, I found that instead of rolling out 1TB balls I had to roll 1/2TB balls to really have 72 calorie cookies. The greatest thing is I have the whole batch to myself (to eat in moderation, that is *wink wink*)

    PS. Oh BTW, I cooked these in the microwave (2 minutes for each batch of 9) and they turned out awesome!

  17. Great recipe. If you feel like the batter is too runny, put it in the refrigerator!

    Reply

    1. It says 2 cups PLUS 1/2 cup for coating.

      Reply

  18. I just made these after seeing these on Pinterest. For those who said they found the batter too runny make sure you get the egg whites to soft peaks and I found refrigerating the batter for a little bit helped. I had to make a few substitutes since I didn’t have everything in my pantry and don’t want to venture out after the hurricane. Instead of cornstarch I used 2 tbsp of flour and I used up all my powdered sugar and then supplemented with granulated sugar. Oh and I toasted 1/2 cup of coconut and added it to the batter – delicious!! Thanks for this recipe!

    Reply

  19. These look really good- before I try them, though, I’m a bit confused by the halving of the powdered sugar. Does the other cup of powdered sugar ever make it into the recipe, or do you just beat in one cup and then use 1/2 cup to roll them in?

    Reply

    1. 1 cup goes into the egg mix, 1 cup goes into the dry mix, and the 1/2 cup is for coating.

      Reply

      1. That would make 2 and a half cups total of powdered sugar in the list of ingredients. Not 1 and a half. I was confused, but this makes sense. Can’t wait to make it!

  20. I bought unsweetened chocolate instead of bittersweet chocolate. So should I add more sugar to sweeten it? Also, since I am on Weight Watchers I was wondering if anyone has tried substituting Splenda for sugar in this recipe? I am not sure if that would even work. Please let me know because these look divine!!! 🙂

    1. I just put this recipe into WW, it says 3 pointsplus per cookie. I was just thinking about trying it with half splenda.

  23. Where did you get your calorie count?! these are 169 calories each, not 72!!!!

    Reply

    1. Jenn,

      It depends on the cookie size, also I halved the sugar (as noted) so that’s where my count came from.

      Reply

  24. Just got done making these. They turned out great, followed the recipe. I’ve made flourless cookies before, and they are sticky! If you keep stirring these or just let them sit a few moments the dough does thicken up quite nicely. The only trouble I had was containing the dry mixture when I was adding it to the egg/sugar mix. My biggest bowl isn’t super big, so I ended up with a fine layer of cocoa/powdered sugar coating all over my kitchen. Got about 2.5 doz. at about 1T size. They are a little doughy in the middle, but they are suppose to be like that!! Hoping my chocolate addicted friend likes them! I used semi-sweet chocolate, worked fine. I might try adding coconut if I make them again.

    Reply

  25. Also, I use the Lose It! app to get calorie count. I’m getting each cookies at 112, making 30 with this recipe. It depends on how big each cookie is!

    Reply

  26. These turned out amazing! I had to cook for about two minutes longer, because the bottoms were still too sticky and not solid enough to get off the sheet. This recipe would be PERFECT for molten chocolate cake. The only change I would make is add a little bit of flour, and maybe another egg white so it’s more of a batter instead of a dough, but the cookies reminded me of the cake because the centers were gooey! Also, I did half dark chocolate chips, half carob chips.

    Reply

  27. Made these over the weekend and they turned out great! I had the same problem with the dough being a little too gooey to roll in the powdered sugar but after ten mins in the fridge, it hardened up enough! Will definitely make again. Way too good to be low calorie!

    Reply

  28. Just made these today! It was my first experience beating egg whites, but it all went successfully. My dough was a little more like brownie batter at first, so I refrigerated it for about 5 minutes and it firmed up beautifully. I used semi-sweet morsels as well and it was good. I could see how walnuts or coconut would taste good in them, but the chocolate is just perfect. 🙂 Thank you for this awesome recipe it’s definitely going in my recipe box!

    Reply

  29. My god these are sweet -_- but they’re so delicious. Is there anyway I can use 1 cup sugar total instead of 2 cups?

    Reply

    1. Yes! I only used one cup and they were great! Just let the batter sit and harden for a bit, it’s thinner with less sugar.

      Happy baking!

  30. Tried these this weekend and the chocolate seized when it came into contact with the egg white mixture. Possibly because it had cooled too much. Next time I will make sure the chocolate is still warm enough. I was able to rescue the batter by re-warming the whole thing in the microwave for a few seconds before rolling and baking. They are really delicious! Hope to make for holiday gifts this year. Thank you!

  31. Urh…just tried making them, but the dough was way to soft, wouldn’t say in a cookie shape. Just put it all in a pan, hopefully something good will come out…i can’t figure out my mistake. It became all soft after having added the dry ingredients

  36. These are the chocolatiest cookies I’ve ever had. The first time I made them, they were perfect. Each time after that, they flattened while baking. While still yummy, I enjoyed the hermit-like ones better. Anyone have the same experience? Any suggestions as to what I should do so that they maintain their hermit-like shape?

  37. This recipe definitely does NOT turn out like the photo. I followed the recipe exactly and my cookies came out flat like regular chocolate chip cookies. Kinda lame. Does anyone know how to fix this?

  40. This are soooo yummy. For those having trouble with the recipe, do note that the base for these cookies is the meringue which can be very difficult to make if you’ve never tried before. The littlest things such as humidity and plastic mixing bowls could easily ruin them. Make sure to also pay attention to the details in the recipe, like making sure the egg whites are room temp, and also to allow them to cool on the sheet before transferring to a cooling rack (this allows a cookie to continue cooking on the inside without cooking it too much on the outside and drying it out).

    Thank you for the recipe! It has curbed my chocolatey craving while i’m too sick to go out to the store 🙂

  41. Delicious! Thanks. The batter was really sticky when I tried to roll the dough. I put sugar on my hands and it was better. Did I do anything wrong or is it meant to be a mess? (A delicious mess)

  42. Hi. I’ve been trying to do this cookies over and over again and so far I had no luck. I tried several times, looking up on internet for things I might be doing wrong but nothing seems to help. I always make sure the eggs are room temperature, and I put the bowl in the freezer for couple minutes before I start using it. I make sure the melted chocolate is lukewarm. I measure all ingredients perfectly. My dough always turns too soft so I put in the refrigerator until is hard enough to roll in the balls. But every time I bake them they “melt” and turn out like flat cookies. Some times is even very dry. Can someone help me?

    Reply

    1. Did you whip your egg whites into “soft peaks”? You have to make sure you whip them until they turn into a thick white cream. It’s easy with a mixer, but I did mine by hand.

      Reply

      1. Hi. Thanks for your reply, and yes I do make sure the egg whites are whipped until they have a marshmallow-ish consistency.
        Even if my batter is runny I usually put in the freezer/refrigerator for some time before rolling, and most of the time I’m able to roll them. The problem really is when I’m baking.
        I usually bake them in a baking non-stick pan, most of the time I spray with non-stick baking spray. Maybe I should try parchment paper..?!

        Reply

        1. I use parchment paper, it works great! I haven’t had problems with sticking

          Reply

          1. Tried again tonight. Did everything how supposed to do. Was looking pretty good until right before I add the melted chocolate and the chocolate chips. Before I add them the batter was harder and looking the way it supposed, right after I add the melted chocolate and the chocolate chips the batter lost its consistency, I had to put in the freezer for 10-15 minutes so I could roll. I did roll and put in parchment paper. NO LUCK! Baked for 8 minutes, the top was cracked but the cookie was completely flat.

            Won’t try again. I’m so sad because I love them… =(

    2. Did you ever change the temperature of the oven to see if that was the issue? Some people microwaved them, did you try that?

  44. These cookies are DEELICIOUS !! I have been looking for a recipe similar to this and this flourless cookie is close!! I added pecans and would add vanilla next time just because I like a vanilla flavor with chocolate. I prefer a milk chocolate flavor and would use milk chocolate chips next time – depends on preference – if folks like dark chocolate these are to die for !! I cooked for 15 min in my oven – need to make sure the top of cookie is cracked and the bottom of cookie is not gooey. This great recipe is a KEEPER !!

  50. I made these last night and they were delicious! My boyfriend loved them too. I see some people had trouble and said their batter came out really runny. Mine was really thick and easy to roll into balls. I think the key is to make sure you whip your egg whites enough so they become white and thick. I do not have a mixer so I did it by hand with a glass bowl and metal whisk, my arm was soar afterwards but it was worth it. Also, I baked mine on parchment paper for 10 minutes and had no problem with them sticking. Just make sure you let them cool for a while because they are very gooey on the inside.

  68. I’m very confused. Where do you mix the melted chips into the rest of the dough? You only mention mixing the rest of the chips into the melted part. Then do you add it to the dough?

    Also, you say you halved the sugar, but you have 1 c in the meringue and 1 c in the dry ingredients. If you actually half it and only use 1 cup, would you recommend adding it to the meringue or the dry ingredients?

    Thank you!

  76. Do you think you could make these, using also the egg yolk? Or will it be too much?

    Reply

    1. With the egg yoke in it, the margarine will not turn out, and if you add them to the dough after your dry ingredients I would think your dough wouldn’t be stiff. I wouldn’t try doing it…

      Reply

      1. I use two egg whites and 1 egg yolk – I just add the yolk as i’m adding in the cocoa power mixture. Turns out great! Different but Great! Instead of it being gooey on the inside they turn out crunchy with air pockets on the inside. Everyone who has tried my version loves them!

  89. These are delightful, light fluffy, fudgy in the middle. All I had was mint and semi sweet chips. Delicious, reminds me of a chocolate treat I had in the west coast of France. Thanks for the recipe.

  93. Awesome cookie thanks for sharing, ? Why do they get hard after a few days? Any suggestions on how to store them, do you know if they can be frozen?
    Thanks

  95. I was a little skeptical to try these as I have had some Pinterest fails but this recipe turned out, turned out well, and they are very yummy!! While they aren’t totally “healthy” I think they are probably better for you than regular chocolate cookies, and these taste like you’re being very, very bad!

  96. These were good, and came out just as pictured, but way too sweet. I used a mix of bittersweet chips and unsweetened chocolate, and all of the sugar. Next time I will definitely reduce the sugar!!

  97. Oh man, I just made these and they are heavenly. I may have cooked them a fraction too long as I was waiting for them to crack and they didn’t but oh so good still!

  100. This is an awesome recipe, thank you so much for posting it! I’ve tried it before and loved it, and I’m planning to make it again for a party tomorrow. Do you think I can make the dough in advance and keep it in the fridge until I’m ready to bake it? Have you tried that before? Thanks!

    1. Glad you enjoyed! I haven’t tried that, but I’d say they would be better off if left in an airtight container at room temp.

  101. Just wondering the best way to store the baked cookies. I’m nervous that putting the in the fridge would cause them to lose their gooey goodness, but not sure if they would hold up in a warm kitchen for a couple days.

  102. Can I sub agave for the sugar? If so, how much?

  104. My daughter and I just made these for my husband. He has Celiac disease and doesn’t get many baked treats. I was nervous about how they would turn out, but they are perfect. Absolutely delicious! I hope that we don’t eat them all before he gets home! Thank you for this recipe – it is definitely going to become a regular in our house.

  105. OMG! These are amazing! Yes a tad time consuming, but so worth it. Mine did spread a bit, but I’m going to try refrigerating the balls to firm them up a bit more before baking. My kids scarfed the first batch. 🙂

  111. The calorie count is off on these. It doesn’t matter how big the cookie is, if you get 24 cookies out of the batch it comes to 151 calories a cookie. If you want to say it’s 72 a cookie, you need to adjust the servings to 48.

  113. Usually don’t take the time to comment, but these cookies are the BOMB!! Made them today, decadent chocolate, rich and gooey! They may not be the simplest to make, but boy are they worth it.

  114. Omg I just made these with the mint/chocolate morsels mix, and added Andes chips in place of the regular at the end. They are to die for!!!! I’m giving them as Christmas gifts – thank you so much! I’ve made this recipe many times, and have never had a failure!

  115. These look so so good! Ok so I have these in the oven as I type. I realized I added 1 cup of melted chips…so then I just added about a half of cup of chips to the batter before I rolled them…nervous about the out come!

    1. Try Aquafaba and see if that works as an egg replacement for this recipe.

  118. These cookies are absolutely amazing! My whole family loved them and I’m making them again.

  119. It amazes me that gluten free folks shun grains but never give sugar a second thought. Sugar is a thousand times worse for you than any grain can be, except for those with allergies to grains. Cancer loves sugar and sugar can cause cancer.

  120. I have tried this recipe at least 5 times now and am making it again for a Christmas cookie exchange. This is so easy to make and it has turned out for me perfect every time. Thank you!

  121. Way too much sugar, but otherwise very good cookies (though passing them off as “healthy” is a bit of a stretch. I cut out a third of the included sugar and didn’t roll them in sugar; I also used 85% chocolate to melt rather than chips; had a nice (for my tastes) bittersweet balance. I also added some vanilla. The cookies were pretty oven stable- the balls really needed to be flattened a bit.

  122. 5 pickles, for sure! I made these, but didn’t realise how little cornflour I had left. So I scratched my head and decided to add finely ground almonds (about 70g), and they worked beautifully. Very moreish, crispy crackled crusts, and chewy moist crumb inside. I’ve been told I’d make a mint if I sold them. Thanks for sharing.

    1. What a wonderful substitution idea! Glad you’re enjoying them!

      Reply

  123. These look amazing! Do you think I could add mint extract to these? How much would you suggest?

    Reply

  124. Made these for my husbands cookie exchange at work, had some concerned people that they were gluten free (but if I’m making cookies and going to have extra, I wanted to make sure my daughter who has an allergy could eat them!). They ended up being the FAVORITE cookies of the exchange! Thanks for the awesome recipe!
