Ingredients
  

  • 1 egg
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • cup almond flour
  • ¼ tbsp liquid raw honey
  • 1 tsp Madagascar vanilla
  • ½ cup cashew butter
  • cup almond butter
  • ½ tsp chia seeds

Frosting Ingredients:

  • cup cacao powder
  • 1 tbsp liquid raw honey
  • 1.5 tbsp runny almond butter*
  • 1 tsp almond milk

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Combine all cookie ingredients into a large bowl. Use a handheld mixer on low to medium to blend until smooth.
  • Do not try to combine yourself or you’ll end up with chunky cookies.
  • Line a baking tray with parchment paper and use an ice cream scoop to portion out blobs. No need to press down.
  • Bake in the oven for 17 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool on the pan completely.
  • While the cookies are cooling, make the frosting. In a small bowl, stir together the frosting ingredients until smooth.
  • Using a silicone spatula, portion and spread the frosting on top of the cookies.
  • Makes seven cookies.

Notes

*use runny almond butter versus the hardened part at the end of the container. Otherwise it won’t mix into a frosting like consistency.
