I'm always looking for easy cookie recipes and this is one of them. The recipe is healthy, dairy-free and a delight for chocoholics. Yes, you know who you are! They're chocolaty with a pronounced almond flavor. They not only taste great but fill your home with the wonderful scent of cocoa as well. There is nothing more comforting than baking a fresh batch of cookies on a cold winter day, especially during the holidays.

These are really rich and delicious and will appeal to anyone who is looking for a healthy alternative to store bought chocolate cookies. The secret is adding coconut flakes and coconut oil to the batter, which brings out the bold cocoa flavor. Top it off with some powdered sugar for a more festive look. Eat a few and enjoy during the holiday season; there’s no need to feel guilty here!
