Gluten Free Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookies


I was looking for another sweet tooth satisfier when I came across chocolate chip cookies.  WHAT?? 
I don't mess with classics too much, so while comparing recipes on almond flour vs coconut flour, I decided to attempt these quick cookies after dinner. 

Recipe:
2 eggs
1/4 C honey
1/3 C coconut flour
1/3 C dark chocolate chips  (*For a truly paleo variety, use Enjoy life brand chocolate chips)
1 pinch of sea salt
1 tsp vanilla 
1/4 C solid coconut oil

Preheat oven to 350. 
Line baking sheet with parchment paper or nonstick foil
Mix all ingredients EXCEPT chocolate chips in mixing bowl with whisk (about 3 minutes) 
If your batter is too runny, add small amounts of coconut flour til it firms slightly.  Try to stir a bit more, first, as my batter was perfect.  Make sure to break up any coconut oil chunks. 

Add chocolate chips. Eat a few. 

Use a tablespoon to scoop batter onto cookie sheet.  Smash down into desired shape. These don't really rise. So you don't have to leave too much room between them. 

Bake 10-15 minutes. Edges should be golden.  These DON'T firm, but bottoms can burn.  Mine cooked 13 minutes. 
Cool for at least 10 minutes. 

Eat.  These are soft and delicious! I think I will add shredded coconut and sub for almond flour next time to make them more like almond joy!
