PREP TIME - 10 minutes
TOTAL TIME - 20 minutes
Ingredients:
For the Fudgy Peppermint No Bake Cookies:
- 1 c. pitted medjool dates
- 1 c. almond flour
- ⅓ c. raw cacao powder
- 2 t. vanilla extract
- ½ t. Peppermint flavoring
- Pinch of sea salt (optional)
- 4 Love + Chew Cookies (We like Mocha Chip or Chocolate Chia here!)
For the Glaze:
- ½ c. coconut milk
- 2 T. melted coconut butter
- 2 T. melted coconut oil
- 4 T. raw cacao powder
Directions:
For the cookies:
Combine all ingredients in a food processor until smooth and pliable dough is formed. Using two spoons or an ice cream scoop, form 8-10 balls, using your hands to form and smooth. Set the cookies aside.
For the glaze:
Heat coconut milk on the stove or in a microwave until heated - don’t let it boil. Stir in the coconut butter and coconut oil until melted, then whisk in the cacao powder until smooth. Let cool slightly before proceeding to step 3.
For assembly:
Using two spoons, drop the cookies into the glaze and coat them. Set onto wax paper or on a cookie sheet to let harden (or put them in the freezer for a few minutes if you’re in a hurry!). Decorate with drizzled glaze, crushed peppermint pieces, sprinkles, or coconut flakes. Serve immediately, or store, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
