Paleo Tagalong Cookies (Copycat Girl Scout Cookies)

Servings 1 dozen (or more)
Author Sunita

Ingredients

  • cup almond flour (70 grams)
  • cup tapioca flour (45 grams)
  • ¼ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla
  • 6-12 teaspoons sun butter, depending on how deep you make your cookie wells

Chocolate Coating

  • cup chocolate chips (unsweetened, coconut sugar sweetened are my preference to keep it lower in sugar)
  • 2 teaspoons coconut oil

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350° F.
  • In a bowl, combine the dry ingredients and set aside.
  • In a smaller bowl, melt the coconut oil, then add in the maple and vanilla and stir.
  • Pour the liquid ingredients into the dry ingredient bowl and mix until fully combined and a dough forms.
  • Roll into 12-14 balls. One by one, flatten each ball with your hand and using your thumb, create a well in the middle to allow for the sun butter after baking.
  • Bake for 10 minutes, until beginning to brown slightly (the bottom will be golden).
  • Allow cookies to cool completely and then fill each well with ½-1 teaspoon of sun butter. The amount depends on how deep the the hole is and how sun buttery you want your tagalong.
  • Freeze the cookies until the sun butter is firm to the touch -- this will take several hours.

Chocolate Coating

  • Before dipping, line a baking pan with parchment or wax paper.
  • When ready to dip, melt together the chocolate chips and coconut oil until smooth. This can be done on a double boiler or in the microwave in 30 second intervals until everything is melty.
  • One by one, dip each cookie into the chocolate mixture using a fork. Tap off the excess chocolate and scrape along the edge of your bowl to ensure a nice thing layer of chocolate coating.
  • Place the dipped cookies on prepared baking pan, and place in the fridge until the chocolate coating is completely firm.
  • Enjoy! Store in fridge or freezer (allowing to thaw a bit before serving).
