Sugar-Free, Grain-Free Chocolate Chip Cookies

Santa gets enough sugary cookies at everyone else's house. When he comes to casa de Etheridge...he gets these tasty treats. He can eat as many as he wants and not feel the least bit guilty about it. Mrs. Clause also approves.


Ingredients:

  • 2/3 cups almond flour (I've also used cashew flour)
  • 1 cup stevia
  • 3 eggs
  • 8oz cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tbs butter, softened
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon coconut flour
  • 1 tablespoon almond butter (peanut butter would also work)
  • 1 1/2 cups dark chocolate chips
Steps:
  • Preheat the over to 350 degrees
  • Cream together butter, cream cheese, almond butter and stevia.
  • Scrap bowl to get all the cream cheese off the sides
  • Add in eggs, stir until smooth (you may want to scrap the sides one more time to make sure all the cream cheese gets fully incorporated)
  • Add remaining ingredients - except chocolate chips, stir well
  • Fold in chocolate chips to mixture and put bowl in the fridge for about 10 minutes.
  • Spoon cookies into rows onto baking sheet using a tablespoon. Make sure they're even.
  • Bake for 20 minutes or until the top of the cookie begins to brown.
