As the weather turns cold and the holidays come and go I find myself wanting to bake. This recipe is a perfect solution, and the resulting cookies are pretty darn good. They go great with a nice cuppa tea on a chilly winter afternoon. A new comfort food.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup pitted dates
3/4 c. almonds (I used 1/2 cup almonds and 1/4 cup almond butter and that worked great)
1/4 c. macadamia nuts
1/2 cup shredded coconut
1 tsp coconut oil (melted)
1 egg
1/2 cup raisins
1/2 tsp cinnamon
Preheat the oven to 350
In a food processor grind up the nuts and dates until everything is small and crumbly, then transfer to a bowl. Mix in the remaining ingredients. Smoosh the dough into cookie shapes and place on a cookie sheet. They can be close to each other because they will not rise at all. Place in the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes or until the cookies are a nice golden color.
Pat yourself on the back for a job well done and enjoy your cookies!
