Sometimes my hormones get the better of me, and all I want is to crack open a tub of nestle cookie dough and go to town. This recipe does a good job of taking that craving down a notch! This is an occasional treat. By occasional I mean, literally, once a month. This is a whopping amount of nuts to eat at one sitting, and definitely not healthy to do on a regular basis. But it's better for you than that tub of over-processed, rancid vegetable oil yumminess.
Original recipe is here; it adds an extra step of refrigeration and a topping of melted chocolate. I prefer to eat out of the bowl. Also, I have cut the recipe to one quarter of its original size and altered it to not require any equipment other than a fork and a bowl.
1/2 cup almond meal/flour
1/4 cup shredded unsweetened coconut
2 Tbsp almond butter
3/4 tsp coconut flour
1/8 tsp salt
1 tsp honey
3/4 tsp vanilla extract
coconut oil (about 1 Tbsp)
Mix all ingredients except oil in bowl until well-combined (and all chunks of almond meal smoothed out). Add in just enough oil to make it come together as a "dough." Refrigerate if desired.
