The recipe was scaled by half and I still got over 2 dozen cookies. The rapadura sugar was substitute with 1/4 cup organic brown sugar for half the recipe. I did not have coconut flour but did have unsweetened coconut which was ground to a flour using the Vita-Mix. Putting these cookies in the freezer for awhile is essential. The dough was quite firm after being in the freezer but still spread quite a bit during the baking process. These cookies have a very nice texture. Made for PAC Fall 2011.

These cookies are the best. I am insulin resistant as well as gluten intolarant so I have to watch carbs and sugar as well as gluten. I changed the recipe just a bit by using almond flour instead of rice and sorghum flour; 8 Tlbsp sweetleaf stevia instead of rapadura and cane sugar. I melted the "promise" root butter and I reduced the chocolate chips to 3/4 cup and walnuts to 3/4 cup. It turned out nice and they did not flatten at all without putting in freezer first.
