Chocolate Thins Recipes

CHOCOLATE THINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• Butter a 14 x 18inch baking sheet with 1 tablespoon of the butter.
• Cream the remaining butter with 1/2 cup of the sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg yolk and vanilla. Mix in the sifted flour and cocoa.
• Using your fingers, which have been run under cold water and dried, spread the batter over the baking sheet, completely covering it to the edges.
• Beat the egg white until stiff and spread it over the batter. Combine the cinnamon with the remaining 1/4 cup sugar, and sprinkle it over the egg white.
• Bake for about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and immediately cut the pastry into about 24 diamond, square, or oblong shapes.
• With a metal spatula, carefully remove the cookies from the sheet and cool.

HOMEMADE BARK THINS

Steps:

• Place almonds in a plastic bag and seal. Using a sturdy wood spoon or an ice mallet, pound the almonds until they are chopped into small pieces mixed with crumbs.
• Set almonds aside.
• In a medium mixing bowl, add chocolate chips. Microwave in 25 second increments, stirring each time. Continue until melted--the key is not to overdo it. When almost all of the chips are melted, stirring a bit extra will get the rest and not overheat the chocolate.
• Pour crushed almonds, vanilla and all of the sea salt except for a pinch into the bowl and stir to combine.
• Line a 9x13inch baking sheet with parchment paper and pour the mixture over top and spread evenly with a spoon or spatula. Sprinkle with remaining sea salt.
• Allow to set in the freezer for about 30 min.
• Remove from the freezer and break into pieces.
• Store in the freezer of refrigerator.

CHOCOLATE COOKIE THINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F; line three baking sheets with parchment paper and lightly coat with cooking spray. Combine the flour, cocoa powder and salt in a small bowl and set aside.
• Combine the sugar, vegetable oil, coconut oil, milk, vanilla and egg white in a medium bowl and beat with a hand mixer on medium-high speed until smooth, about 1 minute. Add the flour mixture and beat on low speed until incorporated.
• Drop teaspoonfuls of the batter about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. Bake until the cookies look firm and dry on the top, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes, and then transfer to a rack to cool completely.
