Notes
- These almond flour chocolate cookies do expand a bit so make sure to leave room between them on the baking sheet.
- Life is easier when you line the baking tray with parchment paper or a silicone cookie sheet.
- They come out of the oven super soft and highly delicate. Let them cool fully on the pan.
- Though the pictures show the almond flour cookies drizzled with chocolate, it’s not necessary. They’re delicious without it!
- However, if you want to drizzle the cookies just melt some chocolate chips on low heat with ½ teaspoon of coconut oil or use dairy-free chocolate ganache.
- A 2 or 2.7oz ice cream scoop works for perfect portions.
