LOW CARB BLACK WALNUT COOKIES image

I recreated this recipe from one of my older recipes, by adding ingredients that would not only enhance the flavor but add to the Low Carb Life Style that I am trying to adhere too. Please note that because coconut flour requires a lot more moisture than regular flour, these cookies tend to be a bit drier than a regular cookie....
