Paleo Almond Joy Thumbprint Cookies

These paleo Almond Joy inspired grain-free treats are almost too cute to eat, but you can’t say no to chocolate and coconut!

Ingredients:

• 2 cups almond flour
• ¼ cup coconut oil
• 1 egg
• 3 tbsp maple syrup
• 2 tsp vanilla extract
• pinch of salt
• ½ tsp baking soda
• ¼ cup shredded unsweetened coconut
• 1 bag of chocolate chips (use Enjoy Life or similar brand if strict paleo)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F

Mix all your ingredients but the chocolate in a large mixing bowl

Form dough into little balls on a cookie baking sheet

Press your thumbs down into each ball to form thumbprints

Bake for 10-12 minutes, depending on the thickness of your cookie. They should look golden brown in the oven!

Using a double boiler, melt your chocolate

Fill each thumbprint space with a spoonful of the melted chocolate

Place in refrigerator to let harden
