Cardamom Orange Cookies with Chocolate (paleo, vegan)

This is also a flourless cookie making the dough a little sticky.  I used wet hands to roll the cookies into balls.  I used cashew butter as the base which I think is the best nut butter because it takes on flavours (like orange) very well but you could also try an almond butter. Cardamom, one of my favourite spices (duh), is also here because it goes so well with orange (and chocolate!).  You can find more cardamom recipes hereand here and here and here and here.

Since the holiday season has officially started in our household I wanted to share my favourite Christmas movies (which I watch every year, multiple times).  And what goes better with a Christmas movie? Cookies of course!
