Gluten-free dark chocolate brownie cookies cooling on a wire rack with sea salt flakes

Today I want to share one of the best recipes I’ve found — and I promise, it won’t leave you feeling bloated.

Yes, you can have chocolate and still eat clean. These brownie cookies are rich, fudgy, and deeply chocolatey — and they’re completely gluten-free and dairy-free.

The star ingredient is 70% cacao dark chocolate, loaded with antioxidants. Almond flour keeps them light and gluten-free, and if you swap regular sugar for monk fruit, there’s zero blood sugar spike. Basically, you get all the pleasure with none of the guilt.

Gluten-Free Fudgy Brownie Cookies

Chewy, chocolatey, and naturally gluten-free
Prep Time 25 minutes
Servings 16 cookies

Ingredients

  • 1 cups Dark chocolate chips (70% cacao or higher)
  • 2 tablespoon Coconut oil
  • 3/4 cups brown sugar, coconut sugar or Monk Fruit

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a heatproof bowl, melt the chocolate and coconut oil together (microwave 30 seconds at a time, stirring until smooth).
  • In another bowl, whisk eggs, sugar, and vanilla until creamy and slightly thick.
  • In another bowl, whisk eggs, sugar, and vanilla until creamy and slightly thick.
  • Add cocoa powder, almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix until a thick, glossy batter forms.
  • Fold in any optional nuts or extra chocolate.
  • Scoop tablespoons of dough onto the baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.
  • Bake 10–12 minutes until the edges are set but the centers look slightly soft — they’ll firm up as they cool.

  • For extra fudgy cookies, don’t overbake.
    Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days (or freeze for later!).
