Equipment

  • 1 large bowl
  • 1 hand or stand mixer
  • 1 large baking sheet

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter softened
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil melted (or an additional 2 tablespoons of butter)
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar or coconut sugar
  • 1/4 cup cane sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 egg at room temperature
  • 1 3/4 cups almond flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup chocolate chips I used extra dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350° Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, beat together the butter, coconut oil, brown sugar, and cane sugar with either a hand or stand mixer for 2-3 minutes.
  • Once the butter mixture is light and fluffy, add in the vanilla extract and egg, and beat again until combined.
  • Add in the almond flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt, this time stirring with a spatula or large spoon until the dough is just combined.
  • Fold the chocolate chips into the batter, then scoop 2 tablespoon-sized balls of cookie dough onto your prepared baking sheet. Place each cookie about 2-3 inched apart, and slightly flatten each cookie with the palm of your hand.
