I’m kinda on a homemade chocolate cookie kick lately, as I’m sure you can tell.
There’s been a few more cookies on this blog in the last few weeks than I usually have. But don’t worry- I won’t bombard you with cookies.
But I do want to share this one recipe with you. Paleo Cardamom Chocolate Chip Cookies.
A total classic.
Why am I sharing this recipe with you when there are a million other chocolate chip cookies out there in cookbooks and on websites and blogs? Well, silly, it’s because chocolate chip cookies are like the little black dress of fashion. You never know when you’re gunna need it and it’s always fun to have one on hand- in case of emergency.
Know what I mean?
These cookies are made without gluten, dairy, soy and grains. Plus, they’re vegan so you can surely serve these babies to your family and friends (or just keep all 10 for yourself to enjoy).
With the warmer weather coming our way and Memorial Day a month away- it’s time to get thinking about what you’re going to serve those BBQ guests.
Did I hear someone say ice cream sandwiches? Mmmmm hmmmm. You betcha; these are going to make awesome ice cream sandwiches this summer. Almond milk or coconut milk ice cream sandwiched between two of these babies is gunna bee heaven on Earth. But, until the temps hit 90 degrees- let’s stick with some warm, protein-packed and flavorful cookies.
O ya, did I mention there’s cardamom and cinnamon in this recipe, too? They’re so unique and you’re going to adore them.

Amie, I am such a cookie fanatic, you couldn’t possible bombard me with too many cookies! I love finding new gluten free, egg free and dairy free chocolate chip cookies. Take care my friend!
Enjoy Laura O; thank you! oxoxx
I have always wanted a rice cooker. I know this is a really good one from researching them for someday.
These cookies sound delicious. I’ve been gluten-free for eight years now, however, going grain-free has piqued my interest over the past few months. Also, I’ve never experimented with caradom. Looks like I will have to try out these cookies! Also, I would love to win a Rice Cooker & Warmer from Zojirushi.
These cookies sound awesome! I have never bought or used cardamom… now I have a reason to try it!
I would absolutely love having a Rice Cooker & Warmer from Zojirushi – thanks for the chance!! I love your blog! Your friend and fan, Jack
I made gluten free vegan choco-chip cookies last night. I will be making again right away–with added cinnamon & cardamom. Love it. Thanks for the inspiration.
These sound yummy. Think I’ll be making these tomorrow if you think i could replace the ground cardamon with the extract or essential oil of cardamon? If yes, any idea how much? I hate to go buy ground if I don’t have to.
Thanks for your help.
