Instructions
Prep
- Baking sheets, lightly greased
- In a large bowl or plastic bag, combine sorghum flour, whole bean flour, tapioca starch, baking soda, xanthan gum, salt and cocoa. Mix well and set aside.
- In a medium microwave-safe bowl, microwave chocolate, butter, shortening, water and coffee granules, uncovered, on Medium (50%) for 2 minutes. Stir until completely melted. Set aside to cool.
- In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat eggs, sugar and brown sugar for 3 minutes, until smooth. Add vanilla and cooled melted chocolate mixture. Slowly beat in the dry ingredients until combined. Stir in chocolate chips. Drop dough by rounded spoonfuls 2 inches (5 cm) apart on prepared baking sheets. Let stand for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Bake in preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until set. Transfer to a cooling rack immediately.
Cookies spread and are still soft when baked; if baked too long, cookies become very crunchy when cold.
For crisper cookies, use 2⁄3 cup (150 mL) butter instead of half butter and half shortening.
Make ahead and freeze for up to 2 months in an airtight container.
