Lavender Chocolate Cookies

I love everything about lavender, its color, its aroma and I absolutely enjoy using it in various special desserts like in macarons, ice cream, or simply in a lemonade, and now in this delicious Lavender Chocolate Cookies. As I love chocolate I simply couldn’t leave it out but feel free to make only Lavender Cookies if desired.

A friend of mine told me about them and really was eager to give them a try. They are as expected, chocolaty with a subtle flavor of lavender which makes them really special and sophisticated. Lavender flavor is not loved by everybody, though I think that if used in just the right amount it can really bring the dessert to the next level. If you love lavender you should definitely give these cookies a try.

    Hello!
    I made these cookies and they were delicious however they were very dense unlike the picture above. I checked the butter which states 1/2 cup but your picture under directions #3 has two sticks which would be 1 cup of butter. Which is actually correct?
    Thanks!

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      I've used 2 smaller pieces of butter that equals 1/2 cup.. maybe next time try to use less flour.. or use cake flour I am sure they will work fine next time

    Loved these choocolate cookies

  14. Kmorg Author says:

    Some of your cup to gram measurements are off. For the flour and sugar for example. Do you mind correcting them? My cookies came out good but didnt expand and stayed in a ball shape. And I used a 1.5 tbsp cookie scoop. Made about 20 cookies like the recipe said. I did 1 & 2/3 cups flour and 2/3 cups sugar, much more than the grams you have listed next to them. Should I have followed the grams or cup measurements?

    1. Ella-HomeCookingAdventure Author says:

      1 cup of all purpose flour weights 125 g.. so.. 1 2/3 cup weights 210g.  2/3 cup of powdered sugar weights 80g (didn't use granulated sugar here).  You can flatten them next time, before baking.

      You can also use my newer version of chocolate chip/chunk cookies, that expand better while baking, and add the lavender to the recipe if desired. https://www.homecookingadventure.com/chocolate-chunk-cookies
