Hey everyone! Thanks for stopping in again and checking out my new episode! If you had fun listening or have a suggestion, feel free to let me know! Here's the recipe and instructions from today's show! If you make these, take a picture and tag me on either Instagram, Facebook, or Twitter!
No Bake Cookies
Ingredients/Tools:
· ½ cup peanut butter
· ¼ cup honey
· ¼ cup coconut oil
· 2 tbsp cocoa powder
· 1 tsp vanilla extract
· 1 cup of quick oats
· Cookie sheet
· Wax/parchment paper (they both work well)
· Stovetop and freezer!
· Whisk, Rubber Spatula, Spoon
*You can add some chocolate chips or nuts in if you like!
Directions:
1. In a saucepan on low-medium heat, melt peanut butter, honey and coconut oil. Use a whisk to stir until smooth. Turn down the heat if it’s starts getting bubbly.
2. Stir in vanilla extract, then whisk in the cocoa powder until smooth again. Once smooth, whisk is no longer needed.
3. Turn off stove and stir in the oats. If it’s a little runny, you can add a little more oats, but no more than ¼ cup.
4. Grab that cookie sheet and lay some wax paper or parchment paper on top. This will make it easier to transfer the cookies after they freeze.
5. Using a tablespoon, scoop cookie mixture into bite sized (or a little bigger) cookies and using the rubber spatula, pop them onto the cookie sheet! You can put them as close as you need to if you’re making a lot of them since they don’t grow!
6. Once you’ve filled up the cookie sheet, put it in the freezer for about 10-15 minutes, and there you have it! No bake cookies!
7. Store them in the fridge since the coconut oil gets softer at room temperature!! Enjoy!
Live, Laugh, Love,
Luigi
