Almond Meal Chocolate Chip Cookies

These are a great substitute for normal chocolate chip cookies! They definitely satisfy my craving whenever I want some.

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups almond meal
1/4 t. salt
1/4 t. baking soda
1/4 cup butter, room temperature
1/4 cup sugar substitute (as always, I use Splenda)
1 egg
1/2 t. vanilla extract
1/4 cup chocolate chips

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.

Combine almond meal, salt, and baking soda in a small bowl. Set aside.

Cream together butter and sugar substitute until combined. Add egg and vanilla and mix well.

Add the dry ingredients, mixing well.

Stir in the chocolate chips.


Drop onto a prepared baking sheet (I think rolling them into balls and squashing them down looks best, but they cook the same either way).


Bake for 10-15 minutes (depends on your oven), or until they are golden brown.



For the lowest carbs possible, use a less sweetened chocolate chip :). These are so tasty! But watch out; once they sit out for a couple of days, they get dry and crumbly, so keep them in a tightly sealed container.
