Based on CandidCam's basic cookie recipe, inspired by the music of Goran Bregovic. Ingredients: 2 cups Carbquik 1 cup almond flour 1 cup polydextrose 1/2 cup erythritol 1 teaspoon baking soda 3 scoops Designer Whey protein powder 1/4 cup instant coffee 3 tablespoons cocoa powder 1/4 cup espresso beans, crushed 2 eggs 1 teaspoon vanilla 8 drops Sweetzfree (or 1/3 cup Splenda) 1 packet Sweet One (or Stevia or whatever you like) 2 sticks butter, softened 1 tablespoon glycerine 1 bag MiniCarb chocolate chips How To Prepare: Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Crush coffee beans with a mortar and pestle. Leave them kind of chunky; not whole beans, not fine powder, but somewhere in between. Mix dry ingredients in a big bowl. Cream butter. Add eggs, vanilla, glycerine and sweeteners. When mixed, add dry ingredients. Once dough is together, add in chips. Form balls (I used a #100 disher from a restaurant supply store, but a half-teaspoon measuring spoon would work well too) and arrange on cookie sheet. A silicone mat is nice if you have one. Flatten balls if you prefer flat waferlike cookies, or just bake them as is if you like puffy bites. Bake 7-8 minutes for the puffy kind, 5-6 minutes for the flat kind. Let cool thoroughly; the coffee beans get soft while the cookies are hot but regain their crunch when the cookies cool. Serve with coffee! Other ideas: add some cinnamon for a cappuccino flavor, make a sandwich with coffee ice cream, crumble into an espresso cup with whipped cream and dust with cinnamon...eat enough of these and inspiration will strike you, I guarantee it! Note: as written, these cookies aren't overly sweet. They are slightly sweet, and perfect with coffee, but if you want to just eat them like normal cookies, you may want to add a few more drops/spoons of sweetener.
