Love is endless,
Love is an adventure
Love is limitless,
Love is giving
Love is a whole world,
Love is happiness,
Love is joy without limits,
Love is knowing how to let go,
Love is giving a part of yourself to another.
I believe that love has a thousand faces,
It’s is not just for a partner,
It’s also for a family member or a friend,
It’s also love for an object,
It’s also love for an experience or a feeling.
It’s also love for a dreamy bite that we’ll always remember,
It’s never ending,
And everyone chooses to love a little differently and that’s what’s so magical.
For me, love is this endless chocolate cookie,
This wonderful and aromatic sweetness,
Which connects to so many situations,
In which all we want to say is I love you.
It’s a perfect bite for a sweet moment on the sofa with your partner,
A wonderful afternoon with the children,
For sweet family moments,
For a visit from beloved friends,
To make our loved ones happy from the bottom of our hearts.
Just a bite full of love without any dietary restrictions.
My chocolate filled cookie contains soft, liquid chocolate clouds just waiting to be nibbled on.
Everyone will bite into the cookie differently,
Some will bite from the middle,
Others will bite from the side,
Some would cut a piece with their hands,
And some will only eat with a knife or fork.
Some will eat it boiling straight from the oven,
And some will wait until it cools.
Any way you choose to love this cookie will work,
Because it’s here to hold, pamper and respect every love it meets.
And that’s the magic in love,
It has no rules,
It has no limits,
There’s nothing that’s bad in it.
There’s only good,
And it’s here to bring a lot more of itself into the world,
Love brings love which brings more and more love.
Exciting days of cookies,
Days of huge granting,
Wonderful days of love to us all 🙂

Chocolate Filled Cookies
Ingredients: suitable for 2 large cookies or 8-10 small ones
- ⅓ cup almond butter (For alternatives, have a look at “A little extra from me”)
- ⅓ cup maple syrup
- Pinch of salt
- 1½ tablespoons cocoa powder
- ⅓ cup oat flour (For alternatives, have a look at “A little extra from me”)
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 8 cubes chocolate for the filling
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) on turbo mode, and line a baking pan with parchment paper.
- In a bowl put all liquid ingredients, the almond butter, maple syrup and salt and mix well.
- To the bowl, add all dry ingredients, the cocoa, oat flour and baking powder and mix well until you get a sticky but not too sticky dough. If the dough is sticky and too wet, add 2-3 tablespoons of flour, if it’s not wet enough and too dry, add 2-3 tablespoons of non-dairy milk. Pay attention – it’s important to work with moist hands (not wet, only moist, it’s important).
- Divide our dough into two parts and flatten each half into a pita shape. Put 4 chocolate cubes inside the pita that we made, wrap them in dough and make a cookie out of it (Have a sneak peek at the photos showing how to make the cookies). Place the cookie in the baking pan and flatten it a bit.
- Put the pan in the oven for 8-12 minutes until they’re a little dry and cracks form on the top. If you prefer the cookie very moist, bake it for a short time, and if you prefer the cookie crunchy, bake it longer.
Cool a little and serve with A LOT of love 🙂
You can eat with a spoon from a plate, cut small pieces or just eat with both hands 🙂
A little extra from me:
- The cookies can be kept in a sealed container on the counter for up to 4 days.
- You can fill the cookies with any add-ins you like, such as a spoonful of peanut butter. You can also omit the add-ins and just bake wonderful cocoa cookies.
- Almond butter can be substituted for tahini / peanut butter / any other nut butter.
- Oat flour can be substituted for almond flour / teff flour / coconut flour / rice flour / spelt flour (contains gluten).
- Click here to see how to grind oat flour at home.
- It’s possible and also very fun to serve it alongside ice cream.
