Ingredients
- 1 cup Whole Wheat Flour whole
- 1/2 cup Amaranth Flour
- 100 gm Butter softened
- 1/2 cup Jaggery
- 1.5 tbsp Milk
- 1/2 tsp Baking Soda
- 1/2 cup Chocolate Chips
Instructions
- Take a bowl and add the whole wheat, amaranth flour and baking soda.
- In another bowl, add the butter, milk and jaggery powder and mix well.
- Add the flours to the butter and jaggery mixture. Add chocolate chips to it and mix well to form a dough.
- Take a small portion of dough, shape it into a ball and flatten it.
- Refrigerate for 10 minutes.
- Bake the cookies in a preheated oven at 200 deg for 20 minutes.
- Remove and let it cool on a wire rack.
- Once the cookies are cooled, spread the chocolate almond butter on 1 end. Sprinkle some sprinklers on it if you want.
- Serve it immediately or store the cookies in an airtight container without the almond butter.
Recipe Notes
You can apply the chocolate almond butter as spread when u want to eat the cookie. Do not apply the butter and store in the container.
Additional Tips
- For an extra nutty crunch, fold in a handful of chopped toasted almonds or walnuts to the cookie dough before baking, which pairs beautifully with the chocolate almond butter.
- If you prefer a softer cookie, slightly underbake them by 1-2 minutes and allow them to cool on the baking tray; for a crispier texture, leave them in the oven for an extra 2 minutes, but watch closely to avoid over-browning due to the jaggery.
- Store the baked cookies in an airtight container with a slice of apple or orange peel to maintain their moisture and keep them tender for several days.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute the butter with coconut oil and use a plant-based milk; this enhances the cookies with a subtle coconut aroma that complements the amaranth and chocolate flavors.
