Chocolate Avocado Cookies

This is a much healthier version of a cookie. The name may not sound very appealing but in reality, it is just awesome and very much like any chocolate cookie. The avocado serves the purpose of butter without adding much flavour to the cookies. Try this.

Ingredients

3/4 cup avocado flesh (very ripe, but not brown)
½ cup  sugar
1 egg
½ cup dark cocoa powder
50 gm dark chocolate chunks
½ tsp. baking soda

Instructions

Preheat oven to 175°C / 350° F.
In a bowl using a hand mixer (or make everything in a food processor), mix together avocado and sugar until smooth. Add in the egg.
Mix in the cocoa powder and baking soda.
Stir in chocolate chunks.
Using two spoons place dollops of cookie dough in a baking sheet with parchment paper. The cookie won't spread as much as usual cookies when baking, so make sure to flatten them out a bit with the back of the spoon.
Bake for 8-10 minutes or until the cookies don't stick as much to the paper as they did before baking.
Cool down. Store in an airtight container in the fridge.
