Low Sugar Gluten-free Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients:

2 eggs
2 TBSP softened butter
1/4 cup brown sugar substitute (I used Truvia Brown sugar blend, but you can use a 1/2 cup of brown sugar)
2 cups Almond flour (sifted)
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp Salt
1 (1oz.) package sugar-free white chocolate instant pudding
1/2 cup milk chocolate chips (I used slightly more, closer to 3/4 cup and felt like I could have done it successfully with slightly less, but you can adjust to your preference)

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350*F.
Beat eggs until nice and foamy. In a separate bowl combine the brown sugar and butter, then combine with eggs. Add vanilla. In another bowl combine the dry ingredients (almond flour, pudding, baking powder, baking soda, and salt). Add dry ingredients to wet mixture, mix well. Add chocolate chips.
Prepare a cookie sheet with parchment paper or a slipmat. Spoon dough onto cookie sheet (the cookies don’t spread, and will pretty much stay exactly as you put them on the sheet, so for a more cookie look slightly flatten the mound of cookie dough).
Bake in preheated oven for 9-12 minutes (depending on the size of your cookies).
