Ingredients

• 1½ cup Almond Flour
• 2 tbsp Coconut flour
• 15-18 drops Sweetzfree (to desired sweetness)

• 3 ounces Sugar-free Dark Chocolate
• ½ cup Chopped Cherries (fresh)

Directions

• Preheat oven at 350 degrees and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Set oven racks at second highest and second lowest positions.
• In large bowl, whisk almond flour, protein powder, coconut flour, baking soda and salt.
• Stir in Sweetzfree, egg, butter, and extracts until the dough comes together.
• Gently stir in 2/3 of chocolate chips, and all the chopped cherries. Be mindful to not crush the cherries too much.
• Form the dough into 15 balls, placing them on baking sheets at least 2’ apart.
• Now, bake 15-18 minutes switching positions of the pans halfway through the baking time.
• Cookies should be puffed and golden but still very soft.
• Press the remaining chocolate pieces into the tops. Cool completely.

Now it time to treat yourself to this delicious cookie that is completely guilt free!!! Please refrigerate any leftovers as the moisture from the fresh cherries shortens the shelf life if left out too long.
