Hey guys,
My mouth is already watering just thinking about these goodies! Oh Gosh, I totally love this recipe and I am sure you will love it too. Why? They are fantastic even without having any flour in them! They are as good as a traditional cookie: soft, chewy, flavorful, but are gluten-free! One of my favorite desserts to enjoy after lunch (this week, I’ve been enjoying Roasted Brussels Sprouts Quinoa Salad for lunch).
I am telling you guys, these gluten-free chocolate chip cookies are so AMAZING!! You won’t believe how EASY they are to make and your kitchen will say thanks to you for not destroying it while making them! They will be definitely a hit in your home.

About the recipe:
I really suggest you use organic almond butter. It is thicker, so your batter will look better. You should bake the cookies for about 9 minutes to have soft cookies. It may look like undercooked, but when they cool down you will notice that they are perfect. However, if you like crispier cookies than soft ones just let them stay 3 minutes more in the oven. Want another recipe that uses almond butter? Try my Chocolate Almond Butter Cookies.
Another very important tip: Allow the cookies to cool completely before you transfer them to a wire rack because they are very delicate when they are hot. You may break them if you don’t wait at least 8 minutes to cool down. Your cookies will be fresh and good to consume for up to 7 days if you store them in a covered container at room temperature.
