Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookies

These cookies are very yummy with no wheat or dairy. 

A little nibble satisfies even the most voracious sweet tooth.

I found this great recipe here.

Ingredients

• 1 c. almond meal
• scant ¼ t. sea salt
• ⅛ t. baking soda
• ¼ t. cinnamon, optional, but delicious!
• 3 T. coconut oil or butter, melted
• 2 T. honey or maple syrup
• 1½ t. vanilla
• ½-1 t. water, only if/as needed
• 2-4 T. chopped dark chocolate, depending on your personal preference (I used 3 T)

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
2. Mix the almond meal, salt, baking soda, and cinnamon.
3. Stir in the coconut oil, honey/maple syrup, and vanilla.
4. Add in water as needed to bring everything together.
5. Stir in the chopped chocolate last.
6. Bake for 10-11 minutes on a well oiled or parchment paper-lined cookie sheet (the edges should be golden).
7. Let them sit on the pan for 5-10 minutes (they firm up during this time, so this is an important step!).
8. Remove and enjoy!

***I doubled the recipe and use 90% Cocoa bars

I hit Trader Joe's today and am deeply sorry for those of you who don't have one nearby.  The almond flour is less than half the price of Whole Foods or my local grocery store.  AND, they have the BEST flowers. It is tulip season and they have an awesome variety of colors. Tulips are my fave along with hydrangeas and sunflowers.

You KNOW the drill, go outside and cut what is in your yard or treat yourself from the grocer or flower market.
