Post the results when you do. I somehow think cocoa powder would make them gritty, but maybe it dissolves? I've seen several recipes that use it but I've always been reluctant to try them.

No grit from cocoa. The flavor is different than using melted chocolate, as is the texture. Melted chocolate gives it a moister, denser texture, cocoa leaves it feeling cakier.

Most of my family recipes use cocoa, not melted chocolate.

I think those cookies sound wonderful. I've seen the recipe before but haven't tried them.

Since you could make chocolate meringues, I would think these type of cookies would work well.

Hey, Jess...don't you have an abundance of egg whites to use up?

Yes! I was thinking the same thing!

These are AMAZING! I really can not believe that they are gluten free cookies. They taste like brownies. They are soft and chewy and very good. Not gritty at all they are very smooth and velvety tasting.

I used C&H powdered sugar (confectioners sugar) and Hershey's cocoa powder and I skipped the espresso stuff. I also added 1 tablespoon of water so it was easier to mix.

These are a great chocolate treat for those of us that are dairy and soy free.

I still can't believe that there are gluten free. They taste like they have gluteny flour in them. I guess it's the mix of the egg and powdered sugar that makes them this way.

FYI espresso powder is great in recipes like that. It really adds depth and a bit of wow. I made some mocha buttercream frosting this morning and forgot I didn't have espresso powder. Not the same without it. It's that little bit that sends the flavor over the edge. Using regular coffe doesn't cut it, I tried.

Thanks for posting this. I have a recipe similar to this, but yours looks a little easier which I am all for. My SIL made them last year with walnuts and they were awesome! I'm going to make them tomorrow.

These look delicious and your review has made me drool. :D and even better that they are DF and SF!

Darn it--I have gained 15 lbs. since DX (ah well, I could afford to put back on a few lbs.) but now, I better be careful of my goodies intake.

um, after New Year's of course.

Thanks for posting this!!!

I used a packet of Starbucks instant and added 2 tablespoons of King Arthur gluten-free flour just for kicks, to see what would happen. They really taste like brownies! What a quick, wonderful cookie for the Holy-daze.

      Curious question

      So I've been dealing with chasing the name celiac because of my body actively dealing with health issues related to celiac though not eating. Diagnosed in 1994 before foods eliminated from diet. After 25 years with former pcp I googled celiac specialist and she wasn't because of what ive been through. I wanted my results to be sent to my pcp but nothing was...

      Celiac Disease and Longevity: Can Treatment and Healing Improve Long-Term Survival?

      Thanks for the prompt reply. Interesting that blood test could be caused by other things. I am sure Dr Fincher will get to the bottom of it. I know he ate nowhere near that amt of gluten before the endoscope. Always interested in any new info abt celiac. U can not trust what is said on fb- That would be a piece of bread a day. He didn't even make that...

      Curious question

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      So I've been dealing with chasing the name celiac because of my body actively dealing with health issues related to celiac though not eating. Diagnosed in 1994 before foods eliminated from diet. After 25 years with former pcp I googled celiac specialist and she wasn't because of what ive been through. I wanted my results to be sent to my pcp but nothing was sent.I have email copies.I did one zoom call with np with team member from celiac specialist in Nov 2025 and she asked me why I wanted to know why I wanted the celiac diagnosis so bad, I sad I don't, its my life and I need revalidaion because its affecting me.KB stated well it shows you are.I asked then why am I going through all this.I was labeled unruly. Its been a celiac circus and medical has caused anxiety and depression no fault to my own other than being born with bad genetics. How is it legal for medical professionals to gaslight patients that are with an ailment coming for help to be downplayed? KB put in my records that she personally spent 120min with me and I think the zoom call was discussing celiac 80 min ONE ZOOM call.SHE is responsible for not explaining to my pcp about celiac disease am I right?

      I've noticed with my age and menopause my smell for bread gives me severe migraines and I know this.Its alarming that there are all these fabulous bakeries, sandwich places pizza places popping up in confined areas.Just the other day I suffered a migraine after I got done with my mri when a guy with a brown paper bag walk in front of me and I smelled that fresh dough bread with tuna, I got a migraine when we got home.I hate im that sensitive. Its alarming these places are popping up in airports as well.I just saw on the news that the airport ( can't remember which  one)was going to have a fabulous smelling bakery. Not for sensitive celiacs, this can alter their health during their travel which isn't safe. More awareness really NEEDS to be promoted, so much more than just a food consumption!FYI I did write to Stanislaus to let them know my thoughts on the medical field not knowing much about celiac and how it affects one.I also did message my gi the 3 specialist names that was given on previous post on questions on celiac. I pray its not on deaf door.
