Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the creamy almond butter and brown sugar. Stir until smooth and creamy.
  • Add the egg, baking soda, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt into the bowl. Mix until everything is well incorporated.
  • Gently fold in the chocolate chips, ensuring they’re evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  • Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop generous tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.

Baking

  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops look slightly cracked.
  • Once done, remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
