This is a wonderful gift to surprise someone who is on a gluten-free diet, who’s never had almond flour cookies or for the person who deserves something special in your life. I love to give this away to my girlfriends on their Birthday and I will double the recipe and place it layered and wrapped in a big bow. It is fun and easy to make and brings a smile to anyone’s face.
Instructions:
2-1/2 cups blanched almond flour
½ tsp salt
1.2tsp baking soda
½ cup dark chocolate chips
Add to a glass jar and seal tight
Directions to place on the label tied to the jar with a pretty ribbon:
Preheat 350 degrees
½ cup light agave
½ cup grapeseed
1 tsp. vanilla-optional
Mix all these together
Add the flour mixture from the jar
Mix only until thoroughly mixed
Roll into 1-1/2 inch long “logs”
Wrap in wax or parchment paper
Freeze for 30 minutes
Cut into ¼ inch round pieces
Place on parchment
Bake approx 7-10 minutes
You may turn to make both sides golden
Remove and let cool.
Enjoy!

What a very cute idea! I’m always the one making gifts for my girlfriend’s birthdays. I just befriended some wonderful gals who are actually gluten-intolerant. This will be a great gift for them! Thanks for sharing, Tina!
This sounds like a great gift idea….for myself! YUM!
Did Elana Amsterdam use JK gourmet almond flour for this recipe? I’m always looking for a good name brand for almond flour.
This a a great holiday gift idea!! What a clever idea! Thanks!
These are truly scrumptious…different from cookies, almost like a sweet chocolate chip oatmeal-ly biscuit!
