Instructions

  • Mix the melted nut butter, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla with a rubber spatula until completely incorporated.
  • Add the almond flour, arrowroot or tapioca flour and salt and stir until it's completely incorporated and the mixture starts to form a ball. The dough may look lumpy at first, but it will smooth out as it sets.
  • Add the mini chocolate chips or chocolate chunks and stir to combine. Place it in the refrigerator 10-15 minutes to cool and set.
  • Leave as is and serve it as a dip with pretzels or apples, or roll them into 1-2 inch balls and store in the fridge or freezer for up to 3 months.

Notes

To make this recipe for one: half the recipe and roll into balls then freeze to eat one at a time!
Store in the fridge: leave as is or roll into balls then store in an air tight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
Store in the freezer: leave the healthy cookie dough as a dip or roll them into balls and store in an air tight container for up to 6 months. Allow the dip to thaw before using, but you can eat the healthy cookie dough bites right from the freezer.
