Recipe Introduction
These hard Italian cookies are loaded with flavor, not fat and calories. Dried cherries add a little chewiness; the almonds, a little crunch. Wrap them in wax paper and then place in a small box.
List of Ingredients
2 cups all purpose flour
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking dosa
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup fat free egg substitute
1 tablespoon vanilla
1/2 cup dried cherries
1/4 cup whole almonds, roughly chopped
2 tablespoons flour, for dustingRecipe
Arrange rack in oven's center; preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
Mix flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda and salt in medium bowl; stir in egg substitute and vanilla, then cherries and almonds.
Dust a clean work surface with flour; turn out dough and knead a few turns. Divide dough in half; roll out two logs, each 8 inches long and 1 inch thick. Place logs 3 inches apart on baking sheet. Bake 25 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet at least 30 minutes.
Slice logs with a sharp serrated knife into 3/4 inch thick cookies. Place cookies cut side down on baking sheet; bake for 8 minutes more. Turn cookies over; continue baking 8 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool on baking sheet 10 minutes, then transfer to finish cooling on a wire rack.
