Flourless Chocolate-Dipped Cookies

These flourless cookies gain their richness from a generous helping of nut butter. They're then dipped in melted chocolate for extra goodness! Try this recipe with a variety of nut or seed butters to find your favorite.

FLOURLESS CHOCOLATE-DIPPED COOKIES [VEGAN, GLUTEN-FREE]

INGREDIENTS

• 1 cup your favorite nut/seed butter
• 3/4 cup coconut sugar (or sugar of choice)
• 1 flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flax seeds, plus 3 tablespoons water)
• 1 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla
• 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
• 1 cup vegan chocolate chips

PREPARATION

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper.
2. Mix together sunflower seed butter and sugar in a medium bowl until creamy. Add in flax egg, vanilla, and sea salt and stir until combined. Stir in 1/2 cup chocolate chips.
3. Drop tablespoonfuls of dough onto prepared cookie sheets. Roll into balls, then press down to flatten slightly.
4. Bake 12-14 minutes, or until solid and golden around the edges. Allow to cool down before handling.
5. Meanwhile, melt remaining 1/2 cup chocolate chips in a double boiler (or microwave). When cookies are cool, dip halfway in the melted chocolate or use a spoon to help scoop the chocolate to cover half of each cookie. Allow the cookies to sit so the chocolate will harden, then serve.
