Method
 

Method
  1. Step 1: Preheat Your Oven
    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that your cookies start baking at the right temperature for the perfect texture.
  2. Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients
    In a medium bowl, combine the super-fine almond flour, baking soda, and sea salt. Whisk these dry ingredients together until well blended.
  3. Step 3: Combine Wet Ingredients
    In a separate bowl, whisk together the large egg, walnut oil (or melted butter), honey, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
  4. Step 4: Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients
    Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined.
  5. Step 5: Add Chocolate
    Fold in the chopped milk chocolate or chocolate chips.
  6. Step 6: Scoop the Dough
    Using a cookie scoop or a spoon, drop tablespoon-sized portions of the dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  7. Step 7: Bake
    Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
  8. Step 8: Cool and Serve
    Once baked, remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes.
