Claudia's Cookies...

You have been warned!! These Vanilla and Almond Chocolate Chip Cookies are seriously delish!! My awesome client Claudia bought me in some of these cookies a few weeks ago and little did she know I had the worst morning sickness and they were the only things I managed to eat all morning...all three of them...by the time I got from work to the car!

They are so delicious that I have made two batches since last week and eaten them all...I am blaming the baby so I am stipulating that if you make these cookies you are only to eat one a day!! Ok?!

Ingredients
3 cups of almond meal
5 tablespoons of coconut oil
1/2 cup of cacao nibs
4 tablespoons of honey or sugar free maple syrup
2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon of sea-salt flakes
1/2 teaspoon of baking powder


Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 150*
2. Line a baking tray with baking paper
3. Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl
4. Roll the ingredients in to small balls making sure they are all the same size. Place the balls on the baking tray
5. With a fork squash the balls so they form a round cookie shape


6. Bake for approximately 15 minutes. The cookies will still be soft when you take them out of the oven
7. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 30 minutes. The cookies will go hard as they cool
8. Eat one only and put the rest in a Tupperware pot; consume only one per day!!!!
