cookie - Coconut Flour Shortbread Cookies

By tinathorn

Ingredients

• 1/3 cup coconut flour
• 4 T grass-fed butter
• 1 T maple syrup
• 1/4 t vanilla extract
• 2 T dark chocolate chips (optional)

Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat oven to 350°F.

2. Cut butter in with the coconut flour using a pastry cutter or two knives, until the butter turns pea-sized.

3. Add in maple syrup and vanilla extract and cream into the dough until a smooth dough is created.

4. Divide dough into eight even amounts. Rolls each piece into a ball, place on a baking sheet, and gently flatten with the back of a fork.

5. Bake for 6-8 minutes, watching carefully so they don’t burn.

6. While the cookies are baking, melt the chocolate chips over a double boiler, or in the microwave on 50% power for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently. Pour the melted chocolate in a small plastic bag or piping bag. Once the cookies are naked and mostly cooled, drizzle the chocolate over the cookies. Allow the chocolate to harden before enjoying
