Ingredients
- 1 cup coconut sugar
- 2 eggs room temperature
- ⅔ cup dark chocolate chips
- 3 tbsp coconut oil
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ⅓ cup cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ½ cup dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- First, preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking pan with parchment paper.
- In a stand mixer or large mixing bowl, add eggs and coconut sugar. Mix on high for 1 minute or until light and frothy.
- In a microwave safe bowl, melt ⅔ cup dark chocolate chips and coconut oil in 30 second increments. Stop and stir between each increment until smooth and creamy.
- Then, pour melted chocolate into mixing bowl. Stir to combine.
- Add remaining ingredients except chocolate chips. Stir until a thick batter forms.
- Fold in chocolate chips.
- Spray cookie scoop or spoon with nonstick spray. Use cookie scoop to drop balls of dough (about 1 tablespoon each) onto lined pan, at least 3 inches apart. These cookies spread a lot while baking.
- Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until middles are set and edges are slightly crispy.
- Finally, remove from oven. Cool on pan for 10 minutes before very carefully moving cookies to a cooling rack.

Notes
- Whip eggs and coconut sugar until light and frothy. See photo in blog post.
- Melt chocolate chips and coconut oil until completely smooth and creamy. Stir every 30 seconds to prevent burning. Mine only took two 30 second increments.
- Batter will be thick and sticky. Spray a little nonstick spray on your cookie scoop or spoon to prevent sticking.
- Balls of dough should be about 1 tablespoon in size. These cookies spread a lot while baking!
- Bake until middles are set and edges are slightly crispy.
- Cookies are fragile! Handle with care.
