Serves: 16 cookies
Ingredients
- 1 cup oats
- 1/2 cup almond butter
- 1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
- 1 cup shredded coconut
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 1 cup of oats, 1/2 cup of almond butter, 1/4 cup of honey or maple syrup, 1 cup of shredded coconut, 1/2 cup of chocolate chips, and 1 tablespoon of coconut oil. Make sure to measure them accurately for the best results.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the oats, almond butter, and honey or maple syrup. Use a spatula or wooden spoon to mix these ingredients together until they are well combined and form a sticky mixture.
- Add the shredded coconut to the mixture and continue to stir until the coconut is evenly distributed throughout the dough. The mixture should be thick and hold together well.
- Once the mixture is well combined, use your hands to form small cookie shapes, about 1 to 2 inches in diameter. Place the formed cookies on a parchment-lined baking sheet or a plate.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave the mixture in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate chips are fully melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Using a fork or a spoon, drizzle the melted chocolate over the cookies on the baking sheet. Make sure to cover them generously for that delicious chocolate flavor.
- Once all the cookies are drizzled with chocolate, place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for about 10-15 minutes, or until the chocolate has set and the cookies are firm.
- After the cookies have chilled and the chocolate has hardened, remove them from the refrigerator. Serve immediately or store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
- Enjoy your delicious No Bake Samoas Cookies as a sweet treat or a healthy snack!
Tips
- Ingredient Temperature Matters: Ensure your almond butter is at room temperature for easier mixing.
- For Best Consistency: If your mixture seems too dry, add a little extra honey or maple syrup.
- Chocolate Drizzling Hack: Use a squeeze bottle or a spoon with small holes for more precise chocolate decoration.
- Storage Tip: These cookies stay fresh in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
- Customization Options: Experiment with different nut butters or add a sprinkle of sea salt on top for extra flavor.
- Chilling is Crucial: Don't skip the refrigeration step - it helps the cookies set and enhances their texture.
- Make Ahead Friendly: You can prepare these cookies in advance for parties or meal prep.
