Ingredients

• 120g Ship Brand Traditional Black Sugar Powder

• 5g ammonia powder

• 4g baking soda

• 60g egg liquid (about 1 large egg)

• 155g corn oil

• 280g cake flour (low-gluten flour)

• 25g cocoa powder

• White sesame seeds for topping

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Mix the base
In a large bowl, combine eggs, Traditional Black Sugar Powder, ammonia powder, and baking soda. Stir until the sugar dissolves and the mixture turns smooth.

2. Add the oil
Slowly pour in the corn oil in batches, mixing each time until well combined. The texture should turn silky and slightly thick — this is key to creating that crumbly cookie structure.

3. Fold in the dry ingredients
Sift in cake flour and cocoa powder. Gently fold with a spatula until just combined. Don’t overmix — it’ll make the cookies tough instead of tender.

4. Shape and garnish
Divide the dough into small 35g balls. Lightly flatten each one, press a small dent in the center, and sprinkle white sesame seeds on top.

5. Bake to perfection
Bake in a preheated oven at 170°C (338°F) for 20 minutes. Let them cool on the tray before transferring — they’ll crisp up beautifully as they rest.

Tips for the Perfect Cocoa Almond Cookies

✨ Mix the oil in gradually to prevent separation and achieve the right texture.
✨ Don’t knead the dough — gentle folding gives that classic flaky bite.
✨ Use Ship Brand Traditional Black Sugar Powder for a deeper, more balanced sweetness.
