Chocolate Coconut Crunch Cookies

The CCC cookie has all the appeal of the regular chocolate cookie, but with a subtle coconut flavour and a sweetness that isn't too overpowering. Plus...it has chunks of 90% chocolate stashed inside, and some walnuts chucked in at the last minute for good measure.

I won't go into the recipe too much because it speaks for itself and is easy as you liiike. Step one: Sieve 3 tablespoons of coconut flour and 1 teaspoon cocoa powder; mix together. Add around 150ml coconut milk, 1 tablespoon honey, 1 teaspoon coconut oil, 1 teaspoon vanilla paste, and blend all ingredients into a smooth paste. Next, add a teeny dash of sea salt, a few crushed walnuts and roughly chopped dark chocolate pieces (I used one 10g square altogether, and crushed it with my bare fingers). Bake on a greased baking tray for 25mins at 350/gas mark 4. Devour with a coffee. Repeat from step one when cookies have mysteriously disappeared within an hour.

Not bad...not bad at all. Pretty darn healthy too, bursting with heart-healthy fats from all directions. And now, I'm out of coconut flour...drat.
