Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookies

Here's another recipe from Delightedmomma.com.  I'm starting to LOVE her recipes, and so far we're two for two, and totally worth sharing.   These were yummy, and didn't make my blood sugar go soaring through the roof and craving for more and more.  I kind of thought they tasted like chocolate chip macaroons, but my husband didn't agree.   He did like them though, and was thrilled that he could eat them without a lot of guilt.
