An easy treat that you can make when you’re craving something sweet, but don’t feel like making a big batch of cookies. This single serving chocolate chip cookie also happens to be vegan and gluten-free!
This recipe is great if you’re living alone, or with someone who doesn’t have much of a sweet tooth. The last thing you want to do is make a big batch of cookies only for them to end up being wasted or you feeling like you have to eat them all before they go off.
It’s also a great recipe for young couples who don’t have a family and many mouths to feed. You can double the recipe and make one for you and your other half.
This recipe was adapted from these chocolate chip cookies, which I made years ago! So if you feel like making a big batch, you can find the full recipe here.

When you say ground almonds in your recipes do you mean almond flour or actually ground up raw almonds? If not, can I substitute with almond flour. Txs.
Hi Michelle 🙂 Ground almonds are not the same as almond flour. They literally are whole almonds that have been ground up. I can’t get hold of almond flour here in the UK, so sadly I don’t have much experience with it and can’t say for sure whether it would turn out the same as a substitute.
