Once your batter is light and fluffy, mix in eggs, vanilla and then melted chocolate.
5
Turn mixer to low setting and add flour mixture and almond milk. Alternate between the flour and almond milk until well combined.
6
Prepare four pieces of plastic wrap. Place batter in four equal pieces on each, wrap and chill in refrigerator for 2 hours.

Roll batter into 1" balls, roll in confectioner's sugar and place on cookie sheet 2" apart. The dough will be sticky. You should have between 12 and 16 cookies per ball of cookie dough. Bake for about 14 minutes and rotate cookie sheets halfway through. Cool on wire racks.
