Chewy Chocolate Paleo Cookies are too good to be true!
Ingredients
  • 1 cup thick almond butter- according to the original recipe, if you use oily almond butter, the cookies don't come together. I made my own almond butter :-)
  • ½ cup coconut sugar
  • ¼ cup maple syrup
  • 1 egg, whisked
  • ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder (ghiradelli is the BEST)
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • pinch of salt
  • ½ cup Chocolate Chips
Instructions
  1. Mix almond butter and coconut sugar together in a large bowl.
  2. Add egg to almond butter and coconut sugar and mix until well combined.
  3. Slowly add cocoa powder to the mixture (add a little at a time)
  4. Add baking soda, vanilla, salt and chocolate chips and combined until everything is well mixed. Dough should be very thick.
  5. Scoop out around 2 tablespoons of dough and form into a round ball. Place on lined baking sheet. Use a fork to press the cookies down just slightly.
  6. Bake for 10 minutes at 350F
  7. Remove from oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes before moving from baking sheet to cooling rack.
