Step 1

In a small bowl, whisk together cassava flour, cacao powder, and sea salt, then set aside.

Step 2

In a microwave safe bowl or via stovetop, heat just the chocolate chips until they’re completely melted and smooth (about 1 minute in the microwave then stir until completely melted).

Step 3

Let the chocolate cool while you combine the remaining wet ingredients in a separate bowl. Using a hand mixer, beat together the coconut sugar, eggs, softened butter, maple syrup, and vanilla extract.

Step 4

Once the chocolate is cool enough (you just don’t want it to cook the eggs!), pour the chocolate into the wet ingredients and continue to beat the mixture again until completely combined.

Step 5

Sift in the cassava/cacao powder mixture and continue to beat the batter until it’s completely combined.

Step 6

Add in extra chocolate chips here if desired and mix with a spoon. Then chill the cookie dough for 20-30 minutes.

Step 7

While the cookie dough is chilling, preheat the oven to 375F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 8

When the dough is ready, use a cookie scoop or a spoon to form 1 tbsp sized cookie dough balls and place them onto the cookie sheet.

Step 9

Place the cookie sheet into the oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, until the cookies have set.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes before enjoying!
