Chocolate Almond Cookies

The chocolate flavor of this cookie relies on the brand of cocoa powder you use. For this recipe I have used Dutch-processed cocoa powder which is cocoa powder that has been treated with an alkali to neutralize its acids. It has a reddish-brown color and its flavor is milder than natural unsweetened cocoa powder.My favorite brands are Droste and especially Valrhona.

Cookie ‘O’

1 Comment

Why the name cookie ‘O’? O for oatmeal.Oats contain more soluble fibre than any other grain, resulting in slower digestion and an extended sensation of fullness.One type of soluble fibre, beta-glucans, has proven to help lower cholesterol.I always wanted to make some cookies using oatmeal and now for real I have them for my son who is not a big fan of oatmeal.  Today, however, I wanted to try a new recipe with an aromatic  spice  from the east.
