I don’t make too many Paleo treats, but every once in awhile I love to indulge. I am a recovering sugar addict mainly from cupcakes and ice cream, but I love a good cookie. When I first went on Paleo, I didn’t make treats because I wanted to dive head first into eating healthy. As time went on, I introduced small treats every once in awhile. I have acquired a huge love of almond butter to the point I get upset when Trader Joes is out of stock. Yes it is that bad. I almost always have a jar (or two) on hand for a quick snack with sliced fruit. These cookies are awesome because they combine some of my favorite ingredients and are easy to make. Chocolate- check. Coconut- check. Almond butter- check. I brought the cookies to a friend’s going-away party, and everyone was shocked they were Paleo. I’m glad I had to share the cookies, or they wouldn’t have lasted a day at my apartment.

sweet! thanks
Did you have a problem with them getting really soft at room temperature? Perhaps I needed to boil the mixture for longer than a minute?
Mine got a little soft after a couple of hours out. I’m not sure if boiling longer will help. If it is too hot outside, the cookies will melt because of the amount of coconut oil in the recipe. Storing the cookies in the fridge is also a great option! I actually really liked them a bit chilled!
Thanks for sharing my recipe! Glad you liked the cookies!
