Recipe (Re)creation: Almond + Cashew + Chocolate Chunk Cookies

Ok, so I thought I made good cookies until today. Now I really know I make good cookies. This recipe was inspired by my son who is obsessed with salty cashews and almonds and eats almond butter by the spoonful. He insisted on incorporating those ingredients in our creation today and boy was he right. My little sous chef is on to something! We hope you enjoy these as much as we do!

Makes roughly 16 cookies

Ingredients:

• 1 cup nut butter (almond or peanut)
• 1/3 cup coconut sugar
• 1 whole egg
• 1/2 tsp. baking soda
• 1/2 tsp. sea salt
• 1/4 cup chocolate chunks (or chips)
• 1/8 cup chopped almond slivers
• 1/8 cup chopped roasted cashews
• Maldon sea salt, to taste

Directions:

-Preheat oven to 350 F.

-In a standing mixer blend the nut butter, coconut sugar, egg, baking soda and sea salt.

-Once dough is gooey, stir in the nuts and chocolate chunks.

-Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and drop spoonfuls of dough on the sheet.

-Bake for 8-10 minutes, rotating the sheet after 4 or 5 minutes so cookies bake evenly. 

-Remove once lightly browned and top with a sprinkling of Maldon sea salt.

-Allow to rest for a few minutes and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

-Enjoy!
