Cacao Chocolate Chips Cookies with Vanilla - preparation

This easy recipe will give you a nice batch of chewy and flavorful cocoa chocolate chip cookies you’ll absolutely fall in love with. They are based on beautifully delicious Zen Spirit cacao powder for some extra chocolaty flavor and the smallest amount of instant coffee for some extra aroma.

Adding one teaspoon of vanilla extract is almost an irreplaceable part of any good chocolate chip cookies recipe but you can also experiment with a tablespoon of lemon, lime or orange zest for some extra zing.

Another great idea is to add a handful of finely chopped nuts such as cashews, almonds, or pecans for a nice crispy balance everybody will love. Finally, these cookies can be stored in airtight containers up to a week and will still be perfect for a delicious afternoon snack or a simple yet addictive treat. Give them a try!
