Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookie Pizza
- 1/4 cups Coconut Oil, Melted
- 1 cup Coconut Sugar
- 1 Large Egg White
- 1/2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
- 1- 1/2 cup Almond Meal
- 1- 3/4 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 1/2 teaspoons Salt
- 1/2 cups Dark Chocolate Chips, Plus Additional For Topping (optional)
- 1/2 cups Raw Unsalted Cashews, Soaked In Water For At Least 8 Hours
- 3 Tablespoons Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk
- 1- 1/2 Tablespoon Honey
- 1/2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
- Pinch Of Salt
- 2 teaspoons Coconut Oil, Melted
- For the pizza cookie dough: In a large bowl, beat together melted coconut oil and coconut sugar.
- Add egg white and vanilla extract and beat until well combined.
- Pour almond meal, baking powder, and salt into the oil mixture and stir until well combined.
- Stir in the chocolate chips.
- Cover the bowl in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
- For the frosting: While dough chills, drain cashews and place them into a small food processor (mine is 3 cups).
- Add almond milk, honey, vanilla and sea salt and blend until smooth, streaming in the melted coconut oil as you blend.
- Depending on the strength of your food processor, this could take a few minutes and youll need to stop and scrape down the sides as necessary.
- Once smooth, transfer to a bowl, cover and refrigerate to let the frosting thicken.
- To serve: Once the dough has chilled, preheat oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Press the chilled dough onto the prepared pan so that it forms an 8-inch circle.
- Bake until edges just appear a deep golden brown and the inside is still soft, about 1920 minutes.
- Let cool completely on the pan.
- Once cooled, spread the cashew cream frosting over top, sprinkle with extra chocolate chips and devour immediately.
- Notes: 1.
- To soak cashews, place them in a bowl and cover with water.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 8 hours to soften the cashews.
- 2.
- If you have a high powdered blender, its a lot easier to get the cream smooth.
- 3.
- The cashew cream frosting does soften the cookie slightly, so it is best to spread it on just before serving.
- However, you can do it a little bit in advance, and refrigerate the cookie to keep it firmer.
