Coconut Macadamia Chocolate Chip Cookies

Some days just call for a cookie! :-) I'm always looking for healthier ways to make delicious treats that aren't loaded with heavily processed flour, gluten, and sugar. Love this as a quick and easy go to option. We store these in the fridge and heat them up for a few seconds before enjoying. Yum! 

Dairy-Free, Gluten-Free, Paleo, Soy-Free

Ingredients:


2 eggs
2 tbl. honey
1 tsp. vanilla
1/3 c. coconut oil
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 c. coconut flour
dash sea salt
1/3 c. chocolate chips (enjoy life - dairy free, soy free and nut free) 
1/3 c. macadamia nuts, unsalted
1/3 c. dried shredded coconut, unsweetened
1-4 tbl. unsweetened coconut milk

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. Mix dry ingredients together except chocolate and macadamia nuts in a medium sized bowl. Until the coconut flour has no more chunks.
3. Heat coconut oil just until melted whisk in eggs, honey, and vanilla.
4. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and stir to combine. 
5. Add chocolate chips and macadamia nuts. Depending upon dryness of mixture add 1-4 tbl. of coconut milk until it reaches desired consistency.
6. Spoon mixture out by the tablespoon onto a lightly greased baking sheet. Flatten them out into a cookie shape.
7. Bake for 15-20 minutes.
