Day 33 of the 50-day Paleo Challenge: Paleo Chocolate Chip/Chunk Cookies!
Chocolate chip cookies We wanted to kick off our treats and cheats section with the quintessential treat, chocolate chip cookies. These cookies are irresistible—soft, chewy, and best served fresh out of the oven.

1 tsp salt
2 eggs
1/2 cup pure maple syrup
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup coconut oil, unrefined
1.5 cups 72% dark chocolate chips (i used the 88% chocolate bars)
Prep Time: 10 min
Cook Time: 15 min
Process:
Preheat oven to 375°F. In a medium-sized mixing bowl combine dry ingredients. In a small mixing bowl beat eggs, maple syrup, and vanilla extract with a hand mixer. Pour wet ingredients into dry and beat with hand mixer until combined. Melt coconut oil, pour into batter, and continue to blend until combined. Stir in chocolate chips. On a parchment-lined baking sheet, drop balls of cookie dough, about a tablespoon in size. Bake for 15 minutes. Let cool and serve.
