I'm cooking this todayRecipe's preparation
Preheat oven to 180° C/350° F. Grind the almonds and palm or coconut sugar 5 seconds/Speed 8. Tip out and reserve.
Rough chop 100 g of chocolate 5 seconds/Speed 5 to get nice chunks that will melt - sort of like chocolate chips only bigger and greedier. Tip out and reserve.
Weigh remaining 100 g of chocolate into the TM bowl and melt 50° C/5 minutes/Speed 1. Add the ground almonds and sugar, cocoa, baking soda, and salt into the TM bowl, lock the lid and turbo pulse a few seconds to combine.
Add the cubed butter, eggs and vanilla and process until the dough is smooth, about 30 seconds/Speed 5. The dough will seem relatively thin; it should look more like a brownie batter than a firm cookie dough. Fold in the reserved chopped chocolate, Reverse Blade Function "Counter-clockwise operation" /5 seconds/Speed 3.
Drop dough by heaping Tablespoon, a few inches apart, onto two or three parchment lined baking sheets. Bake until just set, about 8 to 10 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through. (Do not bake the cookies to a crisp; they will be soft when you take them out of the oven, but firm up as they cool, so be careful not to over bake.) Transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.

These were a huge hit with 2 sets of GF friends - thank you. I followed the tip of halving the sugar too.
Thanks for the tip. With just half the original amount of sugar, these cookies are even more guilt-free

Yum and halved sugar x
Good idea to cut the sugar by half, @polly14. I'll have to try it for Halloween treats

Lots of flavour. Cut the sugar down by half and was still sweet enough for me. Will make again, thank you.
Glad you liked it!

butter isn't paleo, but good recipe!
OMG I think I just gained a kilo or two just thinking about how good these cookies would be with chopped marshmallows in them! Give your 4-year-old a big hug from me
