  • ½ cup + 1 tbsp Nuvos extra virgin olive oil
  • ½ cup Confectioner's sugar
  • ½ tsp Himalayan salt

  6. Remove from oven and let them cool completely for 30 minutes.
  7. Melt dark chocolate in the microwave, until smooth and shiny.
  8. Dip half of the cooled cookies, one at a time, in chocolate.

RECIPE NOTES
Keep a close eye while baking cookies. While cooling cookies should be removed only when they are completely cooled, otherwise, they will crumble.
