These are. Quite possibly. The best cookies I’ve ever made. Which is reassuring since right before this I baked the worst fail recipe ever so it all balances out I guess? Chocolate almond SHORTBREAD cookies. The best shortbread texture. ANYWAYSSSS. Expect more baking from me now that I have more time to focus on it!!!
Chocolate Almond Shortbread Cookies
Makes: 7 cookies
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 1/3 cup almond meal
- 1.5 scoops vanilla whey protein (45 g)
- 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 2 TBSP melted coconut oil
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp almond extract
- 2 stevia packets
- 7 chocolate covered almonds
In a bowl, mix your ingredients except for the almonds! It helps to mix the dry first, then add wet ingredients. Spray a pan with nonstick spray and roll your batter into 7 dough balls. Lightly flatten on the pan. Crush the almonds on top of the cookies. Bake at 375 for 8-10 mins, until lightly brown. EAAAAAT.

Master vegan baking with this specially outlined online course!
hi kim, I was refer ed to your blog by Gretchen(Gretchen bakery) my niece was diagnosed with leukemia recently and she a cookie addict. Now that she cant take wheat, sugar and dairy, i was wondering if you can help, if you have any cookies or cake without those ingredients. thanks
Hey Jue! Any recipe on my blog will be sugar free – so that’s easy to knock out. :) A lot of my earlier recipes contain dairy from whey protein, but most do not any more (most recent posts). Anything labelled vegan/gluten free on my site is probably a good bet for her! If you search the term “vegan” maybe something she would like will pop up!
Some of the first recipes that come to my mind:
Ginger Pear Blondies
Marble Cake (SO SO GOOD)
Chocolate Protein Cake
Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Soft Batch Cookies (they whey protein can be omitted since she can’t have dairy)
Let me know what you think!
