Here’s an easy recipe for 7 Minute Chocolate Cookies:
I was so happy to stumble on this recipe again after having it in my recipe collection for a large number of years. There are only 6 simple ingredients for these chocolatey cookies, and they bake for just 7 minutes. I made mine into smallish cookies, so the recipe made quite a lot. When I have too many cookies on hand, that tends to be dangerous… so I pop them into a large ziploc baggie and store them in the freezer– where they are seemingly safe from excess cookie munching!
You can probably tell that the texture of these cookies is different than “normal” cookies. The cookie batter is absolutely addicting (don’t even try it…). The finished cookies are crispy and chocolatey. I love the addition of a good amount of pecans. Without them, the cookies wouldn’t be very exciting at all. Substituting almonds or walnuts would work just fine too. If you freeze them, just be sure to defrost them before eating. Since they’re a crunchy cookie to begin with, they’re even crunchier when frozen! Enjoy…

No sugar and no eggs! Who knew they could be so so good.
The recipe is wonderful taste wise
But I have a query – when you mention 1 cup that means how many grams?
Because the cup sizes are different in different parts of the world..
Because I tried making with what I have.. they turned out more like brookies then crispy cookies..
Thank you
Since I live in the US, cup means a USA cup measurement. You’d need to use a metric conversion for grams.
