Made this easy recipe last night, cookies didn't last long, and I'm still drooling over them today. Need a food processor, blender, mixer to grind up the nuts, though. And NO cooking!!!!
Ingredients
2/3 C Raw Almonds
2/3 C Raw Walnuts
2/3 C Raw Oatmeal
1/4 t Ground Cinnamon
1/8 t Salt
1/4 C Raw Agave Nectar (I used Maple Syrup, could use honey)
2 t Vanilla Extract
3 T Chocolate Chips
1) In food processor, process almonds, walnuts, oats, cinnamon, and salt to a fine meal.
2) Process in agave nectar and vanilla.
3) Add chocolate chips but don't grind the hell out of them.
4) Roll the dough into little balls, place on a plate and cool in freezer to firm up dough.
After processing everything, I put the meal into a bowl and added the chocolate chips so they wouldn't get all beat up. Instead of making balls, I used a small pan and dumped the dough into it, pressed flat and compacted it in, then cut into squares. They remind me of homemade powerbars.
I like my cookies big, so we only got 4 cookie/squares from this recipe...but DAMN were they good.
