Ingredients
  

1 cup almond flour

1/2 cup nut butter (such as almond or peanut butter)

1/4 cup pure maple syrup or honey

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

1/2 cup mini chocolate chips

1/4 cup rolled oats (optional, for added texture)

Additional melted chocolate for drizzling (optional)

Instructions
 

Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, sea salt, and rolled oats (if you choose to include them). Whisk the mixture until the ingredients are evenly distributed.

    Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, blend the nut butter, maple syrup (or honey), and vanilla extract together. Stir well until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

      Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet mixture into the bowl containing the dry ingredients. Use a spatula to mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated. If the dough appears too dry, add a touch more nut butter or maple syrup; conversely, if it feels too sticky, incorporate a little more almond flour until the desired consistency is achieved.

        Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold the mini chocolate chips into the dough, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

          Form the Balls: Take a tablespoon-sized portion of the dough and roll it into a ball using your hands. Repeat this step with the remaining dough, placing each ball on a plate or parchment-lined baking sheet.

            Chill: For a firmer texture, place the cookie dough balls in the refrigerator and chill for about 30 minutes.

              Optional Drizzle: If you want to elevate your treats, melt additional chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl or using a double boiler. Use a fork or a spoon to drizzle the melted chocolate over each chilled cookie dough ball for a luxurious touch.

                Serve and Enjoy: Serve these delightful no-bake treats either cold from the fridge or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.
