Recipe: Almond Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

My favourite kind of study break is the kind that involves baking. I was craving something sweet but didn’t want to spend hours in the kitchen with several dishes to wash. So, with some inspiration from the classic Kraft Peanut Butter Cookies, I came up with this chocolate chip cookie recipe.  This is a great alternative for individuals looking for a gluten free cookie. The end result is a great chewy cookie to go with a tall glass of milk!

Your batter should look something like this. The best part? It is done in one bowl!

Almond Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

• 1 cup all natural almond butter
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1 egg
• 1/2 cup chocolate chips (dark or semi-sweet)

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 325^oF and line baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Mix almond butter, sugar, and egg in a bowl using a spatula. Fold in chocolate chips. 

3. Roll into 24 balls and place on baking sheet about 4 inches apart. Flatten with your hand.

4. Bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes.

5. Cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes. Remove from baking sheet and cool completely on wire rack or plate before serving.

Enjoy!
