Nipples of Venus
Ingredients
2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
Generous pinch sea salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
Scant pinch ground cinnamon
1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
1/4 cup avocado or light olive oil
1/3 cup brown rice syrup
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Vanilla soymilkChocolate glaze
1/4 cup vanilla soymilk
1 teaspoon brown rice syrup
2/3 cup non-dairy grain-sweetened chocolate chips
18-24 non-dairy grain-sweetened chocolate chips, for garnish
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment. Whisk together flour, salt, baking powder and cinnamon. Mix in coconut, oil, rice syrup and vanilla. Slowly add soymilk, mixing to create a soft, moldable dough. Do not over mix.
With moist hands, roll the dough into 1-inch spheres and arrange on the lined baking sheet about an inch apart. Bake until firm but still tender, 15-18 minutes. Remove from oven and immediately transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Prepare the glaze by placing soymilk and rice syrup in a small sauce pan and bringing to a high boil. Pour over chocolate chips and whisk to create a smooth, shiny glaze. Using a small spoon, dab a small bit of glaze on the center top of each cookie and press a chocolate chip into the center of the glaze, creating the nipple.
Makes 18-24 cookies.
Note: You will have more chocolate glaze than you will need, but it will keep, refrigerate
