GRAIN FREE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

We all know that we have those times when we are on a diet when we need something sweet.  So for the 4th of July I had a friend over and made these cookies as our dessert.  I have to say they are one of my new favorite cookies ever! If you love almond joys you will love these cookies!!!!
Will make about 24-32 cookies.

Ingredients:

• 3 cups almond flour
• 1/2 cup coconut oil, melted
• 1/2 cup raw honey
• 2 large eggs
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp sea salt
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 1/2 cups Enjoy Life Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips.  These are soy free, dairy free, and nut free.  They taste great.  There are other brands that also make these kinds of chocolate chips. 

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 375℉.
2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
3. In a small mixing bowl, combine dry ingredients. Set aside.
4. In a medium mixing bowl, beat the eggs, honey, and vanilla extract with a hand mixer, or wire whisk.
5. Pour wet ingredients slowly into dry ingredients and beat with mixer or fork until combined.
6. Add the melted coconut oil and continue to blend until combined.  Stir in chocolate chips.
7. Drop Tablespoon size balls of cookie dough onto prepared baking sheet.
8. Bake for approximately 7-10 minutes.  I bake mine for around 7-8 minutes so they are still pretty soft in the middle. 

If you do not like coconut then you would not like these cookies.  Almond flour is a little spendy and can be bought in bulk at most health food stores.  I get it for 7.99/lb and most places on the internet sell it for that much also.
