Beacon Hill Cookies

Beacon Hill Cookies

Not being a huge chocolate fan, I had my reservations about a flourless chocolate cookie. I was pleasantly surprised with the results - a deeply chocolatey flavor without being super sugary. In this recipe, it's all about the quality of the chocolate you use.

I realized while I was making these that they're not only chocolatey, they're also gluten and dairy-free. These make a decadent desserts for those folks used to eating applesauce-based sweets.

A few notes on this recipe:

When I found out one of Todd's bandmates is a no gluten or dairy eater, I started paying closer attention to the formulas in Cookies and Brownies. Having people come over regularly means a built-in audience for baking - and I don't want anyone left out of the fun.

Cookies and Brownies, published in 1999, was really ahead of its time when it came out in terms of offering gluten and dairy-free options for really tasty and fulfilling cookies. Of course, the recipes aren't called out as alternative baking formulas - they are just designed to taste great, with the happy circumstance of being gluten and dairy-free.
