Imagine a New York-style cookie, but reimagined for a healthier indulgence. This isn't your average cookie; it's a chewy, chunky delight crafted with gluten-free almond flour, offering a subtle nutty undertone and a melt-in-your-mouth texture. Forget refined white sugar – this cookie gets its sweetness from pure maple syrup, adding a hint of caramel complexity, and a touch of a carefully chosen sweetener to round out the flavor profile.  
Nestled amongst the almond flour and cream cheese are pockets of luscious cherry jam, adding a tart counterpoint to the richness of the cookie.  It's a cookie that's both wholesome and decadent, a guilt-free pleasure that captures the essence of a New York-style treat with a healthy and flavorful twist, complete with a hidden treasure of cherry jam and creamy cottage cheese.
