DOUBLE CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Line a baking sheet or two with parchment paper.
• Using a mixer, cream butter and sugars together on low speed until the two are mostly incorporated. Increase speed to medium-high and beat butter and sugar for 1-2 minutes, or until mixture is smooth and has lightened in color and increased in volume. For best results, scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl with a spatula at least once or twice before the creaming process is complete.
• Add in egg and egg yolk, one at a time, mixing until each is fully incorporated into batter.
• Add in vanilla extract and mix.
• In a separate bowl, combine flours, unsweetened cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder and salt using whisk until very well combined
• Add dry mixture to wet mixture, mixing until combined, then fold in the peanut butter and chocolate chips.
• Using a large cookie scoop, (1/4 cup), scoop cookie dough onto baking sheet. Also can use a smaller scoop, just scoop one scoop on top of the other to get soft, thick fudgy cookies, like a double scoop of dough. Place some extra peanut butter and chocolate chips in between each scoop and some on top if desired if you really want to burst the flavors out!
• Space dough at least 2" apart - 6 per cookie sheet
• Bake for approximately 12 -14 minutes. I like to do 12 minutes.
• Cookies should be starting to firm up but still soft in the middle.
• Remove from oven and let set on cookie tray for a couple of minutes and then allow them to cool on a wire rack.
• Allow to cool completely prior to storing.

DOUBLE-CHOCOLATE BUTTER COOKIES

Steps:

• Beat the butter in a large bowl with a hand mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 1 minute. Add the confectioners' sugar, granulated sugar and salt and continue to beat on medium speed until pale and creamy, 2 minutes. Add the cocoa powder, vanilla and egg; mix on low to incorporate. Add the flour, beating on low speed until just incorporated (a few streaks is fine). Switch to a rubber spatula and fold in the chocolate chips.
• Turn out the dough onto a large piece of plastic wrap, form into a disk and wrap tightly. Refrigerate until firm, at least 2 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Generously dust the dough and work surface with flour. Roll out the dough to a 1/3-inch thickness; if the dough cracks around the edges, simply press it back together. Use cookie cutters to cut out the desired shapes. Place the cookies, 1 inch apart, on the prepared baking sheets.
• Bake until just beginning to brown around the edges, 15 to 20 minutes, rotating the baking sheets halfway through.
• Cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheets before removing the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.

LOW CARB DOUBLE CHOCOLATE WALNUT BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
• Spray pan with nonstick vegetable oil cooking spray. Set aside. Mix wheat bran and 1/2 tablespoon soy flour together and sprinkle evenly over the inside of the greased pan, also coating the sides.
• Place the unsweetened chocolate and butter in a steel bowl and melt over a saucepan of simmering water. Whisk in 1 cup sugar substitute and 1/4 cup heavy cream. Once thoroughly blended, turn off heat and keep warm until needed.
• With an electric mixer on high, beat the eggs, 1 cup sugar substitute and the vanilla extract just until blended. Reduce to low speed and then blend in the chocolate mixture.
• With a wooden spoon, mix in the baking powder, 1 1/4 cups soy flour, walnuts, and 1/4 cup heavy cream. Spread evenly into the prepared pan and bake on the center rack for 35 to 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. (Do not over-bake or brownies will be dry and hard.) Cool completely before frosting with low carb chocolate frosting. Cut into 5 rows by 5 rows to make 25 pieces.
• Place all ingredients in a medium bowl and whisk until well combined. Use to frost brownies, but make sure brownies are completely cooled, or the butter in the frosting will melt.
