Ingredients

Macadamia Nut Cookies:

Paleo White Chocolate Drizzle:

Instructions

Make the White Chocolate Drizzle:

  • Melt the cacao butter in a double boiler, add in the pure maple syrup and sea salt and set aside until ready to use. Heat it for a few seconds in the microwave if it begins to solidify.

Macadamia Nut Cookies:

  • Add the softened coconut oil (or ghee) and coconut sugar to a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Beat oil and sugar until creamy. Note: Be sure your coconut oil or ghee is softened, but not melted!
  • Scrape the sides of the mixing bowl with a rubber spatula, then add the egg and pure vanilla extract and beat until combined.
  • Add the remaining ingredients (almond flour, tapioca flour, baking powder, and sea salt). Beat until a thick dough forms. Add the macadamia nuts and beat until well-combined into the dough. Refrigerate dough at least 1 hour.
  • After the dough has chilled, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough onto the baking sheet and bake on the center rack of the oven 8 to 12 minutes, until the edges are golden-brown and cookies have reached desired done-ness. For chewier cookies, bake 8 to 10 minutes and for crispier cookies, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • While the cookies are baking, prepare the white chocolate drizzle (instructions above).
  • Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool 15 minutes before drizzling with with paleo white chocolate mixture.
