Chocolate Chip Cookies....Gone Paleo!

My dear friend Deb Casares gave me this amazing recipe...THANK YOU so much for sharing! Even Mr. Picky Pants (my 13 yr old son Harrison) thinks these cookies are the bomb and he was truly shocked to find out they are paleo friendly.

2 cups  Almond Meal/Flour

1/2 tsp sea salt

1/2 tsp baking soda

2 tbsp grass-fed butter  or coconut oil, softened (I used butter)

1 egg

1/2 cup raw almond butter

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/2 cup coconut palm sugar (Whole Foods)

1/3 cup dark chocolate chips or chunks

Preheat oven to 350.

Combine the flour, salt and soda and set aside.

Cream the egg, almond butter, butter (or coconut oil) and sugar. Add  the vanilla and mix well.

Add the flour mixture to the egg mixture and mix well.

Fold in the chocolate chips.

Shape generous tablespoons of dough into 18 balls and place on a parchment lined cookie sheet.

Press each dough ball down with the palm of your hand.

Bake for 10-12 minutes or until brown.

Let cool on a wire rack and store in an air tight container
