Make-Ahead/Freezer Instructions
As with many other cookie recipes, I usually make a batch of dough, then bake half and freeze the other half.
When you want a cookie, just bake the frozen dough by adding 2-4 minutes onto the cook time. These are perfect to have on hand for those nights when you just need a little something sweet!

Ingredients
- 1/2 cup (113g) butter softened
- 1/4 cup (56g) coconut oil
- 3/4 cup (160g) brown sugar or coconut sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

- 2/3 cup (87g) toasted walnuts optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream together the butter, coconut oil, and brown sugar. Add the vanilla and eggs, mixing until incorporated.
- Mix in the baking soda and salt. Add the almond flour, 1 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. Fold in the chocolate chips and walnuts with a wooden spoon.
- Form the dough into tablespoon rounds and place on the lined baking sheet about 3 inches apart. Bake for 11-13 minutes, or until golden brown around edges. Cool and enjoy! These cookies are best enjoyed the day they are baked.
Just made these for my work and they lasted just over an hour! Staff gobbled them up. I received all great feedback on how delicious they were. Moist, flavorful, melted in your mouth goodness. I will definitely be making these cookies again!
These are fantastic!!
Love these cookies! Made them twice, even my husband loves them & he’s not on keto diet!
For the coconut oil, is it better to use liquid or the solid form?
These were great! I used Sukrin Gold (brown sugar substitute), and it worked wonderfully. However, mine don’t spread much at all… should I add another egg or more butter or coconut oil to make the dough a little thinner perhaps?
Can you tell me carbs per cookie.
Thank you.
PS: They are really good

What’s the final carb count per cookie?
Have anyone tried using monk fruit sweetener instead of brown sugar or coconut sugar. It is supposed to be 3 times sweeter than normal sugar. So wondering how much to use for this recipe. Monk Fruit sweetener is very healthy.
Great cookie recipe. My favorite! Its a must try.
Nutrition value per cookie? I am diabetic and have to count my carbs before I eat most Foods.
