1/3 cup olive oil
1/3 cup honey
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 cup shredded unsweetened coconut flakes
Preparation
1. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
2. Process nuts in a food processor until very finely chopped (almost ground). Set aside.
3. Combine chocolate, almond butter, olive oil and honey over low heat in a medium saucepan 2 to 3 minutes or until it has a smooth consistency and chocolate is melted. Remove from heat and stir in cinnamon, coconut and nuts.
4. Drop by tablespoon or teaspoonfuls onto parchment-lined baking sheets. Refrigerate at least 30 minutes or until they harden. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

We ditched the chocolate chips because it is not in our diet guidelines. We also used walnuts and don't own a food processor, so we mashed them up in a bag. Instead of finely chopped walnuts, we had coarsely chopped walnuts. Next time, I will decrease the amount of olive oil to 1/4 cup since almond butter has oil already in it.
Other than that, these cookies are AMAZEBALLS! I dare you to try them!
