3. Combine the baking soda, salt, and almond meal. Sift the ingredients together until combined and add to butter mixture.
4. Continue mixing until almond mixture has fully incorporated into the butter mixture.
5. Add the chocolate chips and mix until just combined. Don’t overmix as this will break apart the chocolate.
6. Portion your dough into desired size on a cookie sheet lined with baking paper.
7. Bake cookies in a preheated oven at 165c for approximately 12-15 minutes until golden in colour.
8. Remove cookies from oven and cool at room temperature.
