Soft Chocolate Chip Cookies

I think many of us would agree that not only are chocolate chip cookies tasty, they are a source of nostalgia. These soft chocolate chip cookies are a low carb twist on a soft chocolate chip cookie I remembered helping my mother make. The soft cake like texture of these cookies is absolutely wonderful, and if refrigerated they will stay moist and soft for several days. However, these are tasty enough, you may find they are all eaten within the first day.

Ingredients
  

  • 4 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1/4 cup sweetener
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar substitute
  • 1/2 Cup Coconut Flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 1 tsp cream of tarter
  • 1 Tbsp gelatin optional
  • 1/2 cup sugar free chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  • In a large bowl, beat the butter and cream cheese with mixer until smooth. Add your sweeteners and beat until well combined.
  • Add the vanilla and eggs (one at a time), and mix again until smooth.
  • Add the baking soda, salt, cream of tarter, gelatin. Mix until well incorporated, then add the coconut flour.
  • Once you have mixed in the coconut flour, stir in the chocolate chips. Your dough may seem sticky at first. Let the dough rest for approximately 10 minutes to thicken. Your dough will still be slightly sticky, but you should be able to roll it into balls without it sticking to your hands or losing shape.
  • Roll the dough into 1 1/2 inch balls, and place on the cookie sheet, giving about two inches of space between each ball. Smash them lightly with the palm of your hand. They should be approximately 3/4 in thick after this.
  • Bake for 15-18 minutes or until the cookies are slightly firm to the touch. Remove from the oven and let them cool completely before removing from the pan. Pour yourself a glass of your desired milk, and enjoy!
    Tip - Between each step scrape the sides of the bowl with a spatula to allow for more thorough mixing
