Fabulous Coffee Biscuits Recipe (Cookies for grown-ups)

Ingredients:
1 cup sorghum flour
1 cup buckwheat flour or millet flour
1/2 cup tapioca or potato starch
1 1/2 teaspoons xanthan gum
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon sea salt
3/4 cup Spectrum Organic Shortening
1/3 cup hot vanilla hemp milk or coconut milk with 2 rounded tablespoons instant coffee added + pinch stevia sweetener
1 cup organic light brown sugar, packed
1/2 cup organic white cane sugar
1 tablespoon bourbon vanilla
1 tablespoon honey (or agave nectar to keep it vegan)*
1 tablespoon Ener-G Egg Replacer whisked with 1/4 cup warm water (or 2 beaten eggs)
6 - 8 oz. dark chocolate chips

You're going to chill the dough for an hour so don't preheat the oven quite yet.

In a large mixing bowl whisk together the flours, tapioca starch, xanthan gum, baking soda and sea salt.

In a separate bowl, beat the Spectrum shortening, coffee milk, brown and white sugar, vanilla, honey/agave and the prepared egg replacer (or beaten eggs).

Add the dry ingredients a little at a time and beat to combine- until a dough forms. This dough was stickier- for us- than our usual cookie dough, so we added a tablespoon of sorghum flour to bring it to a soft slightly sticky (but not wet) dough. Judge for yourself- if the dough needs more flour, add a tablespoon at a time until it appears as soft, slightly sticky but not wet.

Add the chocolate chips and any additional add-ins and beat by hand.

Cover and chill the dough for an hour.
