Preheat oven to 350 F.

Over very low heat, melt butter and coconut oil, stirring until melted. Remove from heat and whisk in cocoa powder. Set aside.

In a mixing bowl blend eggs, sugar, vanilla and salt. Whisk in cocoa mixture. Sift in the coconut flour and whisk until there are no lumps. Stir in chocolate chips and nuts.

Those look good! I will have to try them. I am finding lots of recipes using the coconut flour I have. I loved the biscuits and I am sure I will love these cookies, they look delicious.

I made these today with a couple more changes that I really liked. I added 1/2 tsp. of espresso powder to the cocoa. Toasted the walnuts before adding to the batter. Doubled the coconut oil, sugar and vanilla. Baked for 9 mins. to keep moist. Very decadant!

Mine turned out a bit flat and cake like. Any Ideas what I did wrong?

The cookies are cakey, but as far as flat goes...did you flatten the batter or did you just leave it in undisturbed in a mound? The cookies will spread a bit during baking so you don't want to flatten them.

EXCELLENT COOKIES!!!!! I am not a health food person at all... but I have gotten so fat I had to do something about it...recently lost 25lbs....my secret now is just lowering my carbs. I LOVE coconut flour...I made these cookies...doubled the vanilla and used Erythritol as the sweeter (same measurements as sugar)...used a TBS more that the recipe called for.......these cookies were soooooo good!!!
