Ingredients

For the Cookie

1/2 cup coconut oil, solid but scoop-able
1 and 1/4 cups packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon Amoretti® Madagascar Bourbon Vanilla Extract 2x
2 teaspoons Amoretti® Espresso Coffee Extract
1/4 cup full fat coconut milk (in the can works best)
1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce
2 and 1/3 cups Gluten Free 1 to 1 flour (Bobs Red Mill worked best)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon
2 cups chocolate chips
Flaky sea salt (to top)

For the Frosting

1 cup vegan butter
3 cups of powdered sugar
1/4 tsp tsp of Amoretti® Madagascar Bourbon Vanilla Extract 2x
1 tsp Amoretti® Brown Sugar Extract

Directions

For the Cookies:

To make the cookies, preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease and line a springform pan with parchment paper and set to the side.
In a large bowl, cream together the coconut oil, packed light brown sugar, Amoretti Madagascar Bourbon Vanilla and Espresso Coffee Extracts until smooth. Add in the coconut milk and unsweetened applesauce and mix well.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the GF flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until a dough forms. Fold in the chocolate chips.
Take your dough and place inside your springform pan. Making sure the batter is spread out evenly. Bake for 18-20 minutes (depending on your oven) or until the edges are slightly golden brown. Sprinkle flaky sea salt on top while still warm.

For the Frosting:

In a mixing bowl, cream together the vegan butter, powdered sugar, vanilla, and Amoretti® Brown Sugar Extract until fluffy and smooth.
Once the cookie cake has cooled, frost the edge of the cake with a piping bag and tip.
Top with a sprinkle of cinnamon and you're ready to devour your creation!
