Ingredients:
2 cups powdered sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
1/4 cup milk (or any non-dairy milk for a vegan option)
1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, cocoa powder, and salt.
Stir in the dark chocolate chips, then add the milk and vanilla extract, mixing until a thick, sticky dough forms.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
Bake for 10-12 minutes until the edges are set but the centers remain slightly soft.
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serving Tips:
Warm Treat: Serve the cookies warm for an extra gooey texture. You can reheat them in the microwave for 10-15 seconds to bring back their fudgy softness.
Pair with Beverages: These cookies pair beautifully with a glass of cold milk, coffee, or hot chocolate. For a dairy-free or vegan option, try serving with almond milk or oat milk.
Ice Cream Sandwiches: For a decadent dessert, sandwich two cookies with a scoop of ice cream or dairy-free frozen dessert. Vanilla, coffee, or chocolate ice cream would complement the rich chocolate flavor perfectly.
Topping Ideas: For extra flair, dust the cookies with powdered sugar or drizzle with melted chocolate right before serving.
Storage Tips:
Room Temperature: Store your cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. Keeping them sealed will help maintain their chewy, fudgy texture.
Refrigeration: You can also refrigerate the cookies to extend their freshness for up to 7 days. Just allow them to come to room temperature or give them a quick warm-up in the microwave before serving to soften them.
Freezing: These cookies freeze exceptionally well! Place them in a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze for 1 hour. Then transfer to an airtight container or freezer-safe bag, separating layers with parchment paper. They can be frozen for up to 3 months.
Reheating: Thaw at room temperature or warm in the microwave for about 15-20 seconds for that fresh-baked texture.

FAQs:
Can I substitute the cocoa powder?
Yes, you can use Dutch-processed cocoa powder for a milder flavor, but keep in mind that it may affect the color and intensity of the chocolate taste. Avoid using chocolate syrup or other liquid forms of cocoa, as this recipe requires a dry ingredient.
Can I make these cookies nut-free?
Absolutely! This recipe is naturally nut-free, but if you want to avoid cross-contamination or if you’re adding ingredients like nut butters or chopped nuts, just ensure that any additions are nut-free and suitable for your dietary needs.
What can I use instead of dairy milk?
You can use any non-dairy milk as a substitute, such as almond milk, soy milk, oat milk, or coconut milk. These alternatives will work well in this recipe and maintain the texture and flavor of the cookies.
Why did my cookies turn out flat?
If your cookies spread too much, it may be due to using too much liquid or not enough cocoa powder. Make sure to accurately measure your ingredients. Additionally, the dough should be thick; if it’s too runny, consider adding a bit more powdered sugar or cocoa powder to achieve the right consistency.
Conclusion:
With just six simple ingredients and minimal prep time, these Eggless Flourless Chocolate Fudge Cookies are a fantastic way to indulge in a rich, chocolatey treat without any fuss. Perfect for chocolate lovers with dietary needs, this recipe is a must-try!
