Cookies!

So, I've been craving chocolate chip cookies and some delicious cookie dough. I finally found a recipe that looked like it would be good (it's from the Spunky Coconut). I was right! It was delicious! The cookie dough was actually soft and had a smooth texture. That was the best part!

The cookies also turned out very good. No, they are not Momma's cookies, but they were close! I added cinnamon to make them even more like mom's! (According to Nic, an attempt at making sugar-free and gluten-free cookies be as good as mom's was a joke! :)) I have now challenged myself to make something sugar-free without him knowing and I bet he will like it!

Chocolate Chip Cookies:

Add to bowl:

1/2 cup applesauce

3 tbsp flax seed meal or 1.5 tbsp Chia Seed meal

1/2 tsp guar gum

1 tbsp apple cider vinegar

12 drops Vanilla Creme liquid stevia

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/4 tsp sea salt

1/4 cup honey or coconut sugar

1/4 cup coconut oil or ghee (which is casein-free), liquified

Mix with electric mixer.

Add:

1 cup almond meal flour

1/2 cup coconut flour

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp baking powder (Grain-free Baking Powder Recipe)

1/3 cup dairy-free chocolate chips (I use Enjoy Life)

Mix again.

Roll into balls and flatten the balls in your hands. (they don't really change shape in the oven)

Or roll out with a rolling pin and use cookie cutters =)

Bake on a greased cookie sheet at 350 degrees for about 12 minutes.
