Literally obsessed with this recipe! My fav dessert is chocolate chip cookies. When I tried this recipe, I fell in love with it! I make them all the time now and even had my family try them who eat unhealthy stuff all the time and they said they were delicious and were surprised that it was a healthy cookie. Thank you for sharing this recipe!

This recipe has become a staple in my house hold. It is pretty much the only cookie I bake by my children’s request. They absolutely love this recipe and say it is the best chocolate chip cookie recipe I have ever baked.

It has been great even for breakfast sometimes since it is so clean.

I also started adding a dash of salt to it and it enhances all the flavors. I rarely go one week without making these. Can’t tell you how much I appreciate your work and recipes.

  I would stick to almond flour for this specific recipe! The wheat flour will require different measurements that will need some playing around with 🙂
