Ingredients
Instructions
-
In 1-quart saucepan, heat chopped chocolate and butter over low heat until melted and smooth, stirring occasionally. Pour melted chocolate mixture into large bowl; cool to lukewarm, about 10 minutes.
-
Meanwhile, on waxed paper, combine flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt.
-
Stir sugar and vanilla into chocolate mixture until blended. Mix in eggs, 1 at a time. Add flour mixture, chocolate chips, and coconut, and stir until combined. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate 1 hour.
-
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Shape dough into 1 1/2-inch balls and place, 2 inches apart, on ungreased large cookie sheet. Bake 12 to 14 minutes or until set. Cool cookies on cookie sheet on wire rack 2 minutes. With wide spatula, carefully transfer cookies to wire rack to cool completely. Clean edge of spatula after each batch, if necessary, for easier removal of cookies from cookie sheet.
-
Repeat with remaining dough. Store cookies in tightly covered container at room temperature up to 1 week, or in freezer up to 3 months.
Why this Chocolate-Coconut Bites works for PCOS
Desserts on a PCOS plan are not banned, but timing and pairing matter. Eating sweet foods immediately after a balanced meal (rather than on an empty stomach) blunts the blood sugar response, since protein and fat slow gastric emptying. This Chocolate-Coconut Bites works best as an occasional post-dinner option rather than a standalone snack.
