Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400° F, and prepare a baking sheet with silicon or parchment paper.
Sift together the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl.
Next, heat the 3 tablespoons of black coffee in the microwave, adding the flaxseed afterwards, and then stir until congealed. After that, add the coffee mixture to the vegan butter, sugar and vanilla in a large mixing bowl. Whisk well, until everything is incorporated and no chunks of anything remain.
Combine the dry ingredients in the medium bowl with wet ingredients in the large mixing bowl, and fold them together until everything is incorporated and no flour remains.
On a plate, combine the cocoa powder and couple teaspoons of sugar. Roll the cookie dough into walnut-sized balls and then roll the balls in the powder mixture. Then, place the cookies on a baking sheet, flattening twice with a fork in a cross indent pattern, and bake for 9 - 10 minutes, until the cookies are firm.
