About

The most consistent thing in life is change. 

That was the opening line of a speech I wrote as a senior in high school, right before graduation.

This week I’ve been reminded of how quickly life changes. Andrew graduated Kindergarten, and is now a full-blown elementary student!

It still feels like just yesterday he was a tiny little bundle.

My solution for life’s changes is to bake cookies, and these chocolate macnut cookies really hit the spot.

Form the dough into a log, freeze, and then slice into perfectly shaped cookies.


Serves 28

2 cups blanched almond flour

2 tablespoons flax meal

¼ teaspoon sea salt

¼ teaspoon baking soda

¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder

⅓ cup coconut oil, melted over low heat

⅓ cup raw honey

1 tablespoon vanilla extract

½ cup Macadamia Nuts, chopped


Directions
1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a cookie pan with coconut oil, set aside.

2

In a medium bowl combine the almond flour, flax meal, salt, baking soda and cocoa powder.

3

In another medium bowl combine the coconut oil, raw honey, and vanilla extract.

4

Add the dry ingredients to the wet ones and mix until just combined. Add the macnuts. Do not overmix!

5

Form the dough into a log with a 2.5 inch diameter, wrap in plastic wrap and place in the freezer for 1 hour.

6

Remove dough from freezer and unwrap. Slice the log into cookies about ½ inch thick. Place on prepared baking sheet and bake for 7-10 minutes. Allow to cool on the baking sheet for 30 minutes before removing.
