These chocolate chip cookies will blow your mind. They taste just like warm, moist, fluffy baked cookie dough – but no grains and no sugar (don’t tell your guests though). After doings lots of reading, researching and experimenting, I discovered the key is using one of the two top quality blanched almond flours – either Honeyville or Wellbee’s. You won’t reach that fluffy, moist cookie dough goal if you use other almond flours and especially if they are not blanched. Please, leave me comment below after you have tasted them, I cannot wait to hear from you!
Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookies {Cookie Dough Cookies}
Author: Melissa Malinowski, ND
Recipe type: Dessert
Serves: 25 cookies
Ingredients
- 2 ½ cups *blanched* almond flour (not almond meal)
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ cup or 8 TBLS butter, *melted*
- ½ tablespoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup grade B maple syrup
- ½ cup chocolate chips
- ½ cup nuts of choice, optional
Instructions
- Combine dry ingredients: blanched almond flour, salt, and baking soda
- Gently mix in wet ingredients: butter, vanilla, and maple syrup until dough forms
- Scoop dough onto a parchment lined baking sheet (they will rise and get bigger as they bake, so I make them smaller)
- Press balls of dough down gently, but I love the fluffy homemade look, so not too pressed
- Bake at 350° for 7-10 minutes
- *Cool* for 15 minutes (be sure to let them cool otherwise cookies will break)
- Serve - and get ready to be in heaven!

These cookies are to die for! I haven’t had cookies in YEARS! I’ll admit, I was a little skeptical at first, but they taste just like regular chocolate chip cookies, without all of the bad ingredients! I made mine without chocolate chips and they were still phenomenal! I recommend these cookies to anyone trying to satisfy their sweet tooth in a healthy fashion. Thanks, Melissa!
Awesome Mis, thanks so much for the feedback. I’m planning on making more paleo baked goods with the magical flour, stay tuned!
I can’t wait!
