Equipment

  • baking tray
  • tupperware container
  • parchment paper
  • mixing bowls
  • blender

Ingredients

  • cups almond flour
  • 3 tbsp coconujt flour
  • ¼ tsp baking soda
  • ¼ tsp kosher salt
  • 3 tbsp melted coconut oil
  • ¼ cup pure maple syrup
  • ¼ cup plain greek yogurt
  • cups chickpea rinsed and drained
  • ¼ cup light brown sugar
  • ½ cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • tsp baking soda
  • ¼ cup natural peanut butter
  • ½ cup semi-sweet dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  • For the almond cookies:
    Preheat oven to 350° ande line a baking pan with parchment paper and set aside.
  • In a small mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, and salt.
  • In a separate bowl, stir together coconut oil, pure maple syrup, and plain greek yogurt. Add the dry ingredients to the wet and combine until dough forms.
  • Drop spoonfuls of dough onto prepared baking pan and bake for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool completely on cooling rack.
  • Once cooled place in an airtight tupperware container lined with parchment paper and place in freezer. Leave for 1 hour to freeze.
  • For the cookie dough:
    In a blender add chickpeas, brown sugar, almond milk, vanilla extract, and ⅛ tsp baking soda and blend until smooth. Next, add in the peanut butter and blend some more.
  • Last, mix in the chocolate chips. Can eat this straight up right now, but I like to put in fridge for a little. To make the bites put in fridge for at least 30 minutes.
  • To assemble the cookie dough bites:
    Take cookies out of freezer and using a knife scoop out the cookie dough and smear it onto the bottom side of an almond cookie, then take a second almond cookie and place it on top, making a sandwich!  Follow these steps until all the cookies are used. 

Notes

Notes: you can either eat the bites right away or if you want to save them and eat one a day, like I do ;) I placed them back on the tupperware lined with parchment paper and kept them in the fridge.  Can keep in fridge for up to 5 days, in freezer for up to 3 months.
How can my kids help?  Have them measure everything and place in mixing bowls and blender.
