Preheat your oven to 350F (180C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper and set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar. Add the vanilla and eggs, mixing until incorporated.
Add almond flour, baking soda, salt and mix until incorporated.
Fold in the chocolate chip cookies and give a good stir.
Using a medium sized cookie/ice cream scoop, approximately 1 ½ tablespoons, drop dough balls onto the parchment paper lined cookie sheet approximately two inches between dough to allow room for spreading.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until slightly golden around the edges.
Allow to cool before serving.

Storage Tip: Store the almond flour cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. To make ahead, you can prepare the dough and refrigerate it for up to 3 days before baking.
Soften the Butter: Make sure your butter is softened but not melted. Softened butter helps to achieve the perfect chewy texture. If the butter is too melted, it can cause the cookies to spread too much and become flat.
Chill the dough: Refrigerating the dough for at least 30 minutes before shaping helps control the spread and enhances the flavor of the cookies.
Avoid Overbaking: Bake the chocolate chip almond cookies until they are slightly golden around the edges but still soft in the center. The center may look underbaked, but the cookies will continue to cook on the baking tray as they cool.
Use Quality Ingredients: Using high-quality chocolate chips and almond flour can make a significant difference in the flavor and texture of your cookies. Invest in good ingredients for the best results.
