Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. In a large mixing bowl, using a whisk or electric hand mixer, beat the eggs first, then add the coconut sugar, honey, vanilla and coconut oil until and beat until smooth.  

  3. Add in the coconut flour, baking soda and salt, stirring with a spoon or rubber spatula to form the cookie dough.  Since coconut flour absorbs a lot of moisture, wait about a minute after mixing for it to fully absorb the wet ingredients.  Once absorbed the dough should be scoop-able.  You can chill the dough if necessary to get a scoop-able texture.

  4. Fold in the chocolate chips, then scoop the dough onto the parchment lined baking sheet with a medium cookie scoop, forming 12 cookies.  They'll spread a bit while baking so make sure to leave about 2" between cookies.

  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 12 minutes or until set snd golden brown.  Cookies will be too soft to handle right away, let them cool for at least 5 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring with a spatula to wire racks to cool completely.  Cookies will be very soft at room temp and chewy after chilling.  Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, they freeze well too!  Enjoy!
