Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine almond flour and pure maple syrup in a medium bowl until a smooth dough forms.
- Roll out the dough between two sheets of parchment paper to about 1/4 inch thick.
- Use a round cookie cutter to cut out circles from the rolled dough and create holes in the center.
- Transfer the cut cookies to the baking sheet and bake for 25–30 minutes.
- Soak the Medjool dates in nearly boiling water for about 10 minutes to soften them.
- Toast the shredded coconut in a skillet over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes.
- Spread a layer of date caramel on each cookie and sprinkle the toasted coconut on top.
- Melt the dark chocolate chips with coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl and dip the bottoms of the cookies into it.
- Place the cookies in the freezer for about 20 minutes to set the chocolate.
