Recipe Notes
We invested in a Vitamix this past summer and ever since, I've made my own almond flour. You can certainly use store-bought almond flour in this recipe. It's slightly below freezing here in Minnesota, and I kept these cookies in my garage overnight. They soften up just right in about ten minutes at room temperature. Finally this recipe was inspired by its unhealthy counterpart, The Best Rolled Sugar Cookie as well this healthy Chocolate Chip Cookie.
