Coconut Chocolate Chip Cookies

So, I’ve been trying to use more coconut flour for my recipes. For one reason it goes a lot farther and its cheaper than almond flour. I actually really like the taste too! It can be difficult to work with if you are not used to it but once you get it, it’s a great product to work with!!
and my THM Sweetener!!

Let’s start by creaming the butter and cream cheese… you had me at butter!! 🙂 Then add the sweetener, eggs and vanilla and mix well.
Add the dry ingredients:
Chop up an 85% dark chocolate bar and add it in with about 1/2 cup of pecan or walnuts (nuts are optional)! You can use sugar free chocolate chips if you want too!
Preheat you oven to 375 degrees.
Scoop about 1 to 1.5 tablespoons of batter onto a cookie sheet. I did not grease my sheet but I did have a nonstick cookie sheet.

NOTE: To keep these coconut chocolate chip cookies moist you need to keep them in a round scoop, not flatten them!

Don’t you just love this cute little mini ice cream scoop? Perfect for cookies!
