Chocolate Almond Butter Cookies + Friday Favorites
Chocolate Almond Butter Cookies…. only five ingredients to complete and total awesomeness!
It’s Friday and not that I’m counting or anything, but that means after today, I only have 4 more days of work until summer vacation! I think that calls for a celebration…. what about you guys? Cookies it is. One of my favorite ways to celebrate! And they’re fairly healthy, too, so it’s all good. 😉
These Chocolate Almond Butter Cookies are the perfect cookie. They only have 5 ingredients, you mix all of the ingredients in one bowl, they’re quick and oh so tasty. What more could you ask for in a cookie? My favorite type of cookies are soft and chewy and these are spot on. Scroll down for the easy peasy recipe and enjoy some of my favorites on the way down. *The almond butter I used for this recipe was freshly ground and still warm, so it melted the chocolate chips. If you want your cookies chocolatey like mine, just melt them in the microwave for about 30 seconds before combining them with the almond butter.
Chocolate Almond Butter Cookies
Ingredients
- 1 egg
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup almond butter, I used homemade raw almond butter with cinnamon mixed in, use any nut butter you desire
- 1/3 cup brown sugar or coconut sugar
- 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips, I use Enjoy Life Brand
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Prepare baking sheet with a natural cooking spray or parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk egg and salt together, until egg is frothy.
- Add almond butter, sugar and chocolate chips to egg; stir to combine.
- Spoon out 1 tablespoon of dough to make 20 cookies, place 2 inches apart on baking sheet. Gently press the top of each cookie with a fork, twice to form a crisscross pattern.
- Bake at 375 degrees for 10 minutes, and until lightly browned. Allow cookies to cool for about 5 minutes on baking sheet before serving.

I’ve never tried almond butter cookies, but I know I like almond butter so this would be a fun recipe to try!
Yum! Need to make and damn your tomato plants looks great!!!
These look great! So simple! I need to go get some almond butter asap!
These cookies look SO easy and sound SO good! I am a big fan of the chocolate/almond butter combo. I think I might have to try these out with a flax egg to see how that works.
I keep meaning to try flourless almond butter cookies, but the closest I get are muffins 😆 One of these days I will, though, because these look fantastic! And the part about the AB still being warm? Oooomigosh… makes me want to try whipping up a batch myself.
