But then my brain was like, Can we make this in COOKIE FORM? I mean, you can make sugar-cookie gluten-free Greek yogurt cheesecake and vegan cookie pancakes so why can’t we make brownies in cookie form?

FAQs
A weigh scale in the kitchen is such a great investment. I use mine all the time! For the best results and that crackly finish and fudgy inside that make these cookies AMAZING, use a scale to weigh your cocoa powder and sugar.
The batter you make should look thick, similar to brownie batter. If you think it feels too thick, it may be because your egg whites are small. Feel free to add a bit more egg whites if needed.
It may be tempting to switch out the powdered sugar for regular sugar but don’t do it! It’s vital to the recipe and the finished product of the cookies, as it is needed for the cookies to spread.
How To Store Flourless, Gluten-Free Chocolate Cookies
Let the cookies cool completely. Put them in an airtight container or resealable bag. You can store them at room temperature; just keep them out of sunlight and in somewhere dry where there is little moisture. You can also refrigerate or freeze the cookies. Let them come to room temperature before eating. Note that gluten-free baked goods dry out quickly so keep that in mind when deciding how to store them and for how long.
