CHOCOLATE FUDGE WALNUT COOKIES
No Added Fat, Sugar-Free, Wheat-Free

Utensils needed: One bowl, spoon, measuring cups, cookie sheet, electric grinder.

Preheat Oven 375° F

  • 1/3 level cup fat-free sour cream
  • 1-1/4 cups brown rice flour (Bob's Red Mill)
  • 1 cup honey
  • 1-1/4 cups spelt flour
  • 1 large egg
  • 3/4 cup Quaker quick oats (or generic)
  • 2 teaspoons real vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • (mix well with spoon)
  • 1-1/4 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 square (1 ounce) unsweetened
  • (mix well)
  •     chocolate (Baker's) ground fine
  • 1 cup chopped walnuts
  •      in grinder
  • (mix)
  • 1/3 cup baking cocoa (Hershey's)

  • Directions:  Follow recipe in order given and mix when directed. Let dough set in bowl for 15 minutes. This will make a better cookie when baked. Do not re-mix dough.

    Spray cookie sheet with Pam spray or generic equivalent. Drop dough by spoonfuls in a ball-like shape onto the cookie sheet. Space about 2 inches apart. Recipe will make around 3 dozen cookies, depending on the size you choose to make. Bake at 375° for 15 minutes. Remove from cookie sheet to cool. Store in airtight container. Cookies freeze well and can be eaten frozen.

    Note:  While fat-free sour cream is used in this recipe, low fat, reduced fat or regular sour cream may also be used. I use Breakstone's or Daisy brands because of their limited use of additives.
    Note: You absolutely cannot tell that these cookies contain oats.
    Note: If you use another brand of brown rice flour, be certain it does not have a sand-like texture.
    Note: For dairy-free, use "Tofutti sour cream", or a rice sour cream.
