Welcome to Day #8 of Cookies with Chocolate Theme Week.

This morning's Almond Chocolate Chunk soft baked cookies were distributed by Maxine's Heavenly (Los Angeles, CA).

These coconut sugar and date-sweetened, gluten-free and vegan cookies were similar to yesterday's version (without almonds). They had a soft chewy, oat-y texture. If you like nuts, you might have a slight preference for the almond version.

Welcome to Day #7 of Cookies with Chocolate Theme Week.

Today's Chocolate Chocolate Chunk soft baked cookies from Maxine's Heavenly (Los Angeles, CA) had a soft chewy texture.

The sugar buzz one might normally get from cookies was dampened a wee bit by the use of coconut sugar instead of conventional sugar. And dates (barely noticeable) also added some natural sweetness and stick-together (cohesive) texture to these Certified Vegan, Non-GMO Verified and Certified Gluten Free cookies. (These plant-based cookies were also soy free.)

Welcome to Day #2 of Cookies with Chocolate Theme Week.

Today's Double Chocolate Chip Goodie Girl Cookies were from Goodie Girl Tribeca, LLC (Ridgefield, NJ). 

These small, ebony-colored chocolate, chocolate chip cookies had a soft crunch and a sweet, chocolatey flavor.  

Like all cookies featured on this site, these were gluten free. The texture may (or may not) be different, depending on the recipe, style of cookie and ingredients used. 

For example, some find rice flour cookies somewhat mealy and crumbly. However, when used in small quantities in, e.g. a florentine, or with crunchy oats and quinoa cookies, a touch of this flour (perhaps as part of a gluten-free flour blend) might work well.
