Hacked Coconut Flour / Chocolate Biscuits (gluten free/low cal)

I hacked another persons recipe (Coconut Flour biscuits from The Coconut Mama). I wanted a dessert/cookie. I ended up with something I best can call a cookie/biscuit that would go excellent with tea or coffee. You can let these sit on the counter or in the refrigerator uncovered for a few days and they will become very much like biscotti.. Choose when you want to seal them in a bag for the chew/crispness you want. This makes 10-12 items, depends on the size you make your biscuits. They complete recipe is about 380-460 depending on if you discount the fiber or not.

Ingredient

Food ration :

10-12 servings

1/2 cup

coconut flour (200-280 cal - depend on fiber calc)

1/4 cup

unsweetened chocolate powder (60 cal)

2 teaspoons

baking powder

6 Tablespoons

Egg whites (50 cal)

1/2 cup

splenda

1/2 cup

nonfat Greek yogurt (70 cal)

1/2 cup

water

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Preheat stove to 425

* Step 2

Combine all of the above together, it will be a very fluffy, biscuit dough. Let it sit for a bit so the coconut flour absorbs its liquids

* Step 3

Using a spoon, ice cream, measuring whatever. Spoon out your 10-12 biscuits onto a cookie baking sheet. The original author used a ice cream scoop, I used a big dinner spoon. Whatever works. They will not spread or swell ever very much.

* Step 4

Bake for 12-15, until they don't wiggle to touch, I went for 15 as they seemed to still be a little wiggles at 12.

* Step 5

Let them rest until cool, Longer they sit uncovered and unbagged they will continue to harden to the point of biscotti after a few days exposed.

* Step 6

I may try to twice bake them, as traditional biscotti is done. The second bake might dry them out quicker. I may tinker with the amount of water/yogurt as well. These things seem quite awesome once hardened so any way to quicken the hardening process the better.
