    Instructions
     

    Pecan Cookie:

    • Preheat the oven to 325°F, and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
    • In a food processor, pulse the coconut flour and pecans until it turns to a flour-like consistency.
    • Pulse in baking soda, arrowroot powder and salt.
    • Then pulse in the wet ingredients - honey, heavy cream, coconut oil and vanilla extract.
    • Roll dough into a ball and press between 2 sheets of parchment paper to ⅛-inch thickness.
    • Cut dough using a round cookie cutter, then place cookies onto the prepared baking sheet.
    • Bake for about 10 minutes or until the edges start to turn brown.
    • Let cool completely on a wire rack before filing each cookie with chocolate.

    Chocolate Filling:

    • Melt the cacao butter in a bowl over simmering water (double boiler).
    • Mix in the cacao powder, honey and vanilla extract until all combined and smooth.
    • Add about 1 tablespoon of chocolate in between 2 cookies and press down to spread the chocolate around.

    Notes

    Store in the fridge.
