These are a firm favorite. Instead of mixing the chocolate chips into the cookie dough, with these cookies I push two squares into each spoonful of dough once it is on the baking sheet, just before it goes into the oven. That way everyone gets equal amounts of chocolate! Bake them and just watch eyes light up as the flavor hits the taste buds. Simple pleasures.

Ingredients

Deselect All

1/2 cup demerara sugar or light brown sugar

1/2 cup coconut sugar or light brown sugar

1/2 cup refined coconut oil, at room temperature

1 teaspoon vanilla extract 

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 

1 teaspoon baking powder 

Zest and juice of 1 orange (2 tablespoons juice) 

3.1 ounces (90 grams) dark chocolate bar, broken into one-piece squares (2 squares per cookie) 

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, beat together the demerara sugar, coconut sugar, coconut oil and vanilla with a wooden spoon. Stir in the flour, baking powder, orange zest and juice.
Spoon approximately 1-tablespoon-size balls of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets.
Gently flatten the balls using a metal tablespoon, then place two squares of chocolate in the center of each ball. Bake until the edges start to brown, about 10 minutes. Remove the tray to a cooling rack. After 1 minute take the cookies off the baking sheet and transfer to the rack.
