Cook Time 15 minutes
Servings 18 cookies

Ingredients
 

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • ½ cup tapioca starch
  • ¼ cup dark cocoa powder
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons butter melted
  • cup cherry jam
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg

Instructions
 

  • Make dough: Place the ingredients in a bowl and mix with a spatula until fully combined. Cover the bowl and allow the dough to chill in the fridge for 2 hours. This will firm up the dough and keep them thick and chewy when baking. It also makes the dough easier to handle.
  • Bake: Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop 1 tablespoon portions spaced 2" apart and press them down gently with your fingers into a disc shape. Bake the cookies for 15 minutes and transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.
  • Store: Store the cookies in closed container for up to 3 days in the fridge. The cookies can be kept in the freezer for up to 3 months.
