  •   3/4 cup artisan naturals unroasted cashew butter
  •  1/4 cup pure maple syrup
  •  1/2  cup coconut sugar
  •  2  tsp almond extract

Optional Toppings

  • 1/2 cup sugar-free vegan dark chocolate chips
  • 1/2  tsp coconut butter or coconut oil
  •  1/4  cup sliced almonds
  •  1/2  tsp flaky sea salt

Directions :

 

  • Preheat oven to ] 350 [ degrees and line  ]2 [metal baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Add vegan butter or coconut butter, cashew butter, maple syrup, coconut sugar, almond extract, vanilla and salt to a mixing bowl. Use a hand mixer to mix on high speed for  ]60[  seconds until fluffy. Add in the flour and mix on low just until combined. The texture should be a bit crumbly, but still hold together. If it is too dry, add  ]1-2[  tbsp of water. If too wet, add  ]1-2  [tbsp of flour.
  • Use a ] 1.5[  tbsp scoop to scoop out  ]30 [ cookies onto the baking sheets spread  ]1.5 [” apart. Use a flat-bottomed glass to press each cookie down to  ]1/4[ ” thick. Bake for ] 12-15[  minutes until the edges are just barely golden. Remove from oven and set aside to cool for  ]5[  minutes.
  • Meanwhile, add the chocolate chips and coconut butter or oil to a microwave safe dish and heat at ] 50[ % power in  ]30 [second increments, stirring in between, until melted. Use a spoon to drizzle the melted chocolate over the cookies. Immediately sprinkle with almonds and sea salt. Let cool completely before enjoying. (Placing in the fridge for  ]5-10[  minutes expedites this process!)
