21 Day Fix Chocolate Chip Cookies

*from Autumn Calabrese FIXATE cookbook

If you are like me .. you love your chocolate chip cookies. HOWEVER, the 21 Day Fix doesn't necessarily allow just any plain old chocolate chip cookie. It must be the Chocolate Chip Cookies from the FIXATE cookbook by Autumn Calabrese.

I bought the cookbook a year ago and today was the second time I used it. The first time I used it was about 6 months ago; I made Creamy Tomato Basil Soup. It was soo YUMMY! I will post that recipe another time!

I wanted to share this recipe because I know how hard it can be to find foods that are compatible with the 21DF. I just want to make certain that this is NOT my recipes. It is a copied version for the FIXATE cookbook.

I had a sweet tooth earlier so decided to make the Chocolate Chip Cookies. In my own honest opinion, I most likely won't make them again. They weren't awful, but they definitely aren't my favorite. I like my sugary chocolate chip cookies. Don't take my exact word and just not try them. Everyone has a different taste pallet, and well these just aren't for me. I can't figure out if it was the almond flour that left the weird taste, or the fact these contained no sugar?

I still want to share the recipe with you even though these are my fave!

Recipe below!!
