Paleo Perfect Date Nut Cookies

Makes: 12 to 15 cookies Prep time: 30 minutes Bake time: 8-10 minutes

Ingredients

1 cup raw almonds

3/4 cup fresh pitted medjool dates

3/4 cup grass fed butter

2 cage free eggs

1 tablespoon best quality vanilla

2 tablespoons coconut flour

2 cups almond flour

1/2 teaspoon fresh baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup chopped pecans

1 cup diced medjool dates

3/4 cup K’ul baking chocolate chopped

1/4 cup raw flaked coconut

Directions

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Line several baking sheets with parchment or silicone mats.  In a food processor, puree the almonds and 3/4 cup of dates until finely chopped and blended well.  Add the butter, vanilla and eggs and pulse until mixed and smooth.  Add coconut flour and almond flour, baking soda and salt and pulse until just combined.  Scrape out mixture into a large bowl and mix in the remaining ingredients.  With a small ice cream scooper, place about 8 cookies per mat. Gently flatten them with the palm of your hand.  Bake for about 8-10 minutes until they are lightly golden brown.  Let cool before moving them to a baking rack.  The cookies will be crumbly, so be careful while they are warm.  Place in airtight containers when they are completely cool.
