Ingredients

  • 1 cup Almond flour
  • 2 tablespoons Unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseed
  • 0.5 teaspoon Baking powder
  • 0.5 cup Granulated erythritol
  • 0.5 cup Butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 0.25 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 cup Chopped walnuts
  • 0.5 cup Sugar-free chocolate chips

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large bowl, mix together the almond flour, cocoa powder, ground flaxseed, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, granulated erythritol, and vanilla extract until the sweetener is dissolved.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms.

Step 5

Fold in the chopped walnuts until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 6

Using your hands, form small balls of dough (about 1 tablespoon each) and place them on the prepared baking sheet, gently pressing them down to flatten slightly.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are set and slightly firm to the touch.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and allow the biscuits to cool completely on the baking sheet.

Step 9

Once cooled, melt the sugar-free chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl or using a double boiler.

Step 10

Drizzle the melted chocolate over the cooled biscuits and let it set before serving.
