Instructions

Preheat oven to 350’F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking sheets.
Whisk together whole egg and egg yolk. Set aside.
In a large bowl, stir together almond butter and coconut sugar until fully combined. Add vanilla extract, peppermint oil/extract, baking soda, and salt. Mix until fully incorporated. Then add whisked egg and egg yolk and mix again until fully incorporated. Fold in chocolate chips.
Using a tablespoon-sized measuring spoon or scoop, form the dough into round balls and place onto prepared baking sheets.
Press balls down, as these cookies spread only a bit in the oven.
Bake 10 -12 minutes until cookies are golden brown
Let cool for 5 minutes then transfer to cooling rack to cool completely before serving. Enjoy!
