Ingredients

  • 1 cup almond butter (almond spread - 100% almonds)
  • 1 cup caster sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 2.5 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp sea salt
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 80 g non-dairy vegan milk chocolate

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180C or 350F
  • Beat together the almond butter and sugar until smooth - but not too long, or the almond oil will separate.
  • Add the egg, vanilla, sea salt, and baking soda.  Mix until combined. Line your cookie sheets with baking paper.  Form the batter into golf-sized balls. Place 6 on each tray.
  • Break your chocolate into squares. Press one square of chocolate down onto each dough ball, creating a disc.
  • Bake for 8-10 minutes, until the edges are golden-brown and crisp but the centres are still pale slightly soft.
  • Remove and transfer the cookies - still on the baking paper - to a cooling rack.  Allow to sit for 5-10 minutes to firm up.
