Paleo Chocolate Roll-Out Cookies

I grew up making chocolate roll-out cookies, with my mom. My siblings and I would each get a piece of dough that we could roll-out on our own. My favorite part was getting to choose what ever shape of cookie cutters I wanted.

I wanted to be able to still enjoy that tradition. The first time I made these, I gave one to my younger brother. He said they tasted similar to the ones we grew up on, only that they were not as sweet, which is how I prefer them to be.

Paleo Chocolate Roll-out Cookies

Makes 30-40 cookies, depending on there size.

Cookie Ingredients

1 + 3/4 Cup almond flour
1 Tablespoon coconut flour
1/2 Cup cocoa

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

1 egg

1/4 Cup maple syrup

Frosting Ingredients

1/3 C. Coconut Oil

1/2 C. Cocoa Powder

1/3 C. maple Syrup

1/4 tsp. Salt

Cookie Instructions

Preheat oven to 350' F, and grease a cookie sheet with coconut oil.

Add first five ingredients in a bowl and stir. Add remaining ingredients, mix until combined.

Place dough in a zip-lock bag and Chill in the freezer for 15-20 minutes.

Roll out between 2 pieces of wax or parchment paper about a 1/4 inch thick. Lightly flouring the dough with almond flour will help the dough not stick.

Cut into the desired shape, and place on your greased pan, reuse your off cuts by rolling it out again.

When your pan is full, bake them in preheated oven for 5-8 minutes, depending on the size of the cookies, bake them shorter or longer. They are done when the whole cookie is no longer shiny. Also when you touch them they should be soft but set.

Frosting Instructions

Melt the coconut oil in a microwave safe bowl until just melted. Add the cocoa and salt and stir till combined. Add the maple syrup and mix till combined.

Place in the fridge for 30-45 minutes or until it is set. With an electric mixer or by hand whisk until it is smooth. You can whip this as much as you like, I like it to be more like fudge, but feel free to whip it more!

Frost cooled cookies and serve!

Enjoy!

Paleo & Grain Free Sugar cookies

I have always enjoyed making roll-out sugar cookies. I created this recipe for a valentine's day treat. These have such a similar texture and taste, to the ones that I used to make. They have the perfect amount of softness/chewiness for me. I like my cookies to be on the soft side. You can bake them for longer if you like them crunchier.

Paleo & Vegan Avocado Key Lime Pie

I love this light simple key lime pie! It is so creamy and smooth and tastes so fresh, and doesn't make you feel heavy after eating it. You may worry that it will taste like avocados... I can honestly tell you that it does not. When you put avocados with something, like lime juice, all you can taste is the lime.

How to Soak Cashews 3 different ways!

I have three ways that I have soaked cashews. They all have the same results. When I have the time, or I remember, I use the overnight method. But when you forget...it is nice to have other options! I found that raw or steam pasteurized cashews are the best for soaking. However any type of cashews will work. I have used roasted before, they just take a little longer to soak. So keep that in mind depending on what is available to you. Soaking Cashews Ingredients: cashews Water to cover Option 1) OVER NIGHT Place cashews in a glass jar or container and cover with water. Let soak in water for about 10-12 hours. They are fully soaked when they fall apart when you lightly squeeze them. Option 2) 3 HOURS Place cashews in a glass jar or container and cover with hot water. Let soak in water for about 3 hours, making sure to replace with new hot water every 30-45 minutes. They are full...
