Ingredients
Macadamia Nut Cookies:
- 1/3 cup coconut oil softened not melted
- 1/3 cup coconut sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1 2/3 cup superfine almond flour
- 2 Tbsp tapioca flour
- 3/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
- 1/2 cup macadamia nuts chopped
Paleo White Chocolate Drizzle:
- 1/4 cup coconut butter or raw cacao butter
- 2 tsp pure maple syrup to taste
- 1 pinch sea salt
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract optional
Instructions
Make the White Chocolate Drizzle:
- Melt the cacao butter in a double boiler, add in the pure maple syrup and sea salt and set aside until ready to use. Heat it for a few seconds in the microwave if it begins to solidify.
Macadamia Nut Cookies:
- Add the softened coconut oil (or ghee) and coconut sugar to a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Beat oil and sugar until creamy. Note: Be sure your coconut oil or ghee is softened, but not melted!
- Scrape the sides of the mixing bowl with a rubber spatula, then add the egg and pure vanilla extract and beat until combined.
- Add the remaining ingredients (almond flour, tapioca flour, baking powder, and sea salt). Beat until a thick dough forms. Add the macadamia nuts and beat until well-combined into the dough. Refrigerate dough at least 1 hour.
- After the dough has chilled, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough onto the baking sheet and bake on the center rack of the oven 8 to 12 minutes, until the edges are golden-brown and cookies have reached desired done-ness. For chewier cookies, bake 8 to 10 minutes and for crispier cookies, 10 to 12 minutes.
- While the cookies are baking, prepare the white chocolate drizzle (instructions above).
- Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool 15 minutes before drizzling with with paleo white chocolate mixture.
