Provided by รก-170456

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup egg whites see * Note
1 3/4 cups Dutch-process cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
5 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1 pound walnut or pecan pieces

Steps:

  • * Note: Rather than cracking a number of eggs, you can buy cartons of liquid egg whites at supermarkets. Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Mix together the egg whites, cocoa, salt and sugar on medium speed until the batter is stiff and all ingredients are well incorporated, about 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in the walnuts or pecans by hand. Place the batter by rounded teaspoonfuls onto the baking sheet; work in batches. Bake until the cookies are a bit shiny and slightly cracked, 10 minutes. They will look underdone but do not overbake. This recipe yields 48 cookies. Each cookie: 125 calories; 34 mg sodium; 0 cholesterol; 7 grams fat; 1 gram saturated fat; 17 grams carbohydrates; 3 grams protein; 1.67 grams fiber.

CHOCOLATE CHEWIES

If you love the chocolate chewies that Safeway sells, then this recipe is for you! It's wheat free, and the only fat comes from nuts. I got this recipe from another website and have altered it slightly to make it more like the Safeway cookies. Next time I make this recipe, I'm going to try substituting walnuts for the pecans. Enjoy!

Time 25m

Yield 18-20 cookies, depending on size

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups chopped pecans
3 large egg whites (do not use egg substitutes)
2 cups powdered sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, plus
2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tablespoons ground-up pecans
1 pinch salt
3/4 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees F; line cookie sheet(s) with parchment paper.
  • Toast nuts until fragrant and brown. Cool.
  • Beat egg whites one at at time, then continue beating while adding powdered sugar, cocoa powder, and salt. Add vanilla; beat 2 minutes on high speed.
  • Fold in toasted pecans. Drop by heaping tablespoon on baking sheet 2-inches apart.
  • Bake in the middle of the oven 15-18 minutes or until dry on surface but soft in the center when pressed. DON'T OVERBAKE. Cool. Store in an airtight container for 3 days, or freeze up to 1 month.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A combination of semisweet and bittersweet chocolate is ideal.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing will result in a tough cookie.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are set and the centers are still slightly soft. Overbaking will result in dry, crumbly cookies.
  • Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack before enjoying them.

Conclusion:

These chocolate chewies are the perfect treat for any chocolate lover. They are rich, chewy, and have the perfect amount of sweetness. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can easily make these delicious cookies at home. So next time you have a craving for something sweet, give this recipe a try!
