NOTE: You can use my Classic Chocolate Chip Cookie Mix for this recipe, just add 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, and there is extra collagen in my mix, so they will be more on the chewier side, then crispy... Both amazing!

Dry ingredients

  • 168g (1½ cups) almond flour
  • 46g (1/3 cup) coconut flour
  • 56g (1/2 cup) organic collagen grass-fed
  • 220g (1 cup) chocolate chip (chopped)
  • 130g (1 cup) powdered sweetener monk fruit, erythritol, xylitol
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

 

Wet ingredients

  • 80g (1/3 cup) grass-fed butter room temp
  • ---sub for palm shortening to make DF
  • 112g (1/2 cup) peanut butter natural smooth
  • 1 free-run egg room temp
  • 10mL (2 teaspoons) pure vanilla extract 

Chocolate Ganache

  • 110g (1/2 cup) chocolate chip (melted)
  • 1 tablespoon coconut oil 

Instructions:

  1. In a medium bowl, measure/weigh out all your dry ingredients.
  2. In a stand mixer bowl, beat the softened butter, peanut butter, sweetener, egg and vanilla with a beater/paddle attachment, or use an electric mixer like I did in my video. Beat butter until creamed (don't over-mix), about 2 to 3 minutes.
  3. Reduce speed to the lowest setting and gradually add the dry ingredients mixture in several additions.
  4. Mix until just combined, being careful not to over-mix.
  5. Shape the dough into disks, wrap securely in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 20min or until firm! In a hurry? Pop the dough in the freezer for 10min; allow the dough to warm up on the counter until they are still firm but not soft.
  6. Preheat the oven to 350°F/180°C and line one baking sheets with parchment paper. Roll out the dough, between two pieces of saran wrap, to 1/4-inch thickness.
  7. Cut out using a 3-inch cookie cutter and place on a prepared baking sheet, spacing them 1 inch apart.
  8. Bake the cookies for 8-12 minutes (depending on the size of your cookie).
  9. Cool on the cookie sheet, enjoy just as is, or dip in some chocolate ganache to make your heart sing with JOY. 
  10. Store in an airtight container for five to six days and freeze for up to three months.
