Foodie Friday: Chocolate Chip Cookies

Happy Foodie Friday everyone! With Christmas rolling up quick it is just about time to get ready for all of the baking festivities. We always go above and beyond with the holiday classics so why not have a little healthier twist on Santa’s Chocolate Chip Cookies this year!

This is the perfect cookie to make the night before with the kids…and you don’t have to worry about them getting too much sugar before bed!

Ingredients:

Dry Ingredients

• 2 1/2 cups almond flout

• 1 teaspoon baking soda

• 1/2 teaspoon salt

• 1 cup dark chocolate chips

Wet Ingredients

• 1/2 cup salted butter melted

• 3/4 cup coconut palm sugar

• 1 large egg

• 1 large egg yolk

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions:

1. In a medium bowl combine almond flout, salt, and baking soda. Whisk to combine, set aside.

2. In a large bowl cream together melted butter and coconut palm sugar using an electric mixer. Beat for 1-2 minutes until slightly frothy. Add egg yolk, full egg, and vanilla, mix until well combined.

3. Combine reserved almond flout with wet ingredients. Stir well. Add chocolate chips and stir well to combine.

4. Dough will be quite soft. Cover dough with wax paper and place in refrigerator for 1-2 hours.

5. Preheat oven to 325°

6. Remove dough from refrigerator. Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop drop batter onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Alternatively, form the dough into 1/2 inch balls.

7. Press the dough down gently with your fingers to flatten the balls slightly. Do not flatten all the way.

8. Bake for 9-12 minutes.

9. Remove from oven (the cookies will appear very soft) and place tray on a cooking rack. Allow to cool for 5-10 minutes. They will harden as they rest and cool.

Andrea has been at IPT since July of 2023 and has been the definition of consistency! She always makes adjustments to her nutrition and exercise when needed and pushes herself in workouts every single time. Each month she exceeds her goal of losing body fat mass, and has lost a total of 24lbs of BFM since joining! She's able to chest press 25 lb dumb bells and can do a full pushup without any assistance now. You can really see the difference in how Andrea carries herself and the confidence she has now compared to her first day at IPT. She completely transformed her life for the better!

Hi, my name is Dylan and I’ve been at IPT since December of 2022, and my fitness habits have greatly improved since then! Since I started at IPT, I’ve been consistent with all of my workouts at the gym, my workouts outside of the gym, and my nutrition. I’ve lost 13.2 pounds of body fat, and have gotten stronger and faster with every session. My training at IPT has helped me to throw a no-hitter this baseball season as well as decrease my 40 yard sprint time!
