Cha CHING! Chocolate CHIA cookies :)

These guys are deeeeee-liscious! I was craving some chocolate chew on Easter Sunday and CHA CHING, these guys totally came through! 

They make my mouth water just knowing all the superfood power in them (get this: chia seed, almond flour, coconut oil, raw honey, cacao, sea salt). LOADED with nutrient density!  They are sweets you can eat AND feel good about...

Chocolate Chip Chia Cookies
Makes roughly 25 cookies

3 cups almond flour (or Trader Joes almond meal works too)
2 tbsp chia seeds
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp sea salt
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup coconut oil (warmed)
1/4 cup raw organic honey
2 eggs, whisked
*2 TBS Cacao (optional for extra superfood enhancement and chocolatey flavor)
1 cup chocolate chips or cacao nibs

Preheat oven to 375F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a medium bowl combine the almond flour, chia, baking soda, sea salt, and cacao. In a separate bowl combine the warmed coconut oil, honey, vanilla and eggs. Pour the wet ingredients into the almond flour mixture and stir to combine. Mix in the chocolate chips.

Scoop the dough onto a parchment lined baking sheet with a small ice cream scoop. Bake for 10 minutes, remove and let cool for a few minutes before placing on a wire rack to cool completely.

 ENJOY!
