Yields8 ServingsPrep Time10 minsCook Time15 minsTotal Time25 mins

You can make these crunchy (due to the surprise of the cacao nibs), moist Paleo gems with the pecans on top as written.  Or frost them with your favorite Paleo frosting. Either way, you'll have a hard time keeping them in the house!

 ¼ cup Coconut Flour
 ¼ cup Cocoa
 1 tbsp Flax meal
 2 tbsp Cacao Nibs
 ¼ tsp Baking Soda
 ¼ tsp Salt
  cup Coconut Palm Sugar or 1/3 cup Honey
 4 Large Eggs
 ¼ cup Coconut Oil
 24 Pecan Halves (optional)

Preheat oven to 350* F. Line muffin tins with 8 paper liners (or I use silicone muffin cups) .

2

Place dry ingredients in food processor or mixing bowl; pulse or whisk to mix.

3

Add remaining ingredients except for pecan halves. Pulse or whisk again.

4

Spoon about 1/4 cup batter into 8 paper-lined muffin tins (or silicone muffin cups on a cookie sheet). Press 3 pecan halves onto the top of each.
