When Oreo meets Bounty! I love vegan raw desserts. While I never tried these Oreo cookies before, they turned out great. Thanks, @samstonehill, all sponsors, and @woman-onthe-wing for organizing this fantastic contest!
Ingredients
For the cookies
1 1/3 cup almonds (or any other nut or a mix of your liking)
3/4 cup Medjool dates, pitted
1/4 cup Goji berries
3-4 tablespoons raw cacao powder
Sea salt to taste
1-3 tablespoons water
For the coconut vanilla creme
1 cup desiccated coconut
2 tablespoons melted extra virgin coconut oil
Vanilla extract to taste
Coconut milk until desired consistency
For the dark chocolate cover
1/2 cup maple syrup
1/2 cup cacao powder
1/3 cup coconut oil
Directions
For the cookies
- blend almonds (or other nuts of your choice) until powder-like. Add other ingredients and blend until homogenous mixture. Add water as needed until the mixture comes together in a ball.
- Roll the dough between 2 sheets of parchment paper until desired cookie height. Use a cookie cutter (I used the top of a cocktail mixer) to cut little rounds. Freeze until hardened
For the coconut vanilla creme
- Blend all ingredients until coconut butter-like texture. Add peppermint or other flavors if you want.
- when to cookies are hardened, layer coconut creme on half of the cookies and add the remaining cookies on top.
- Freeze to set.
For the dark chocolate
- Whisk together all ingredients.
- dip cookies in chocolate sauce, place on a baking sheet and freeze until hardened.
Serve with a nice cup of green tea!
