Nuts About Cookies!

Let your inner Cookie Monster out because the ultimate cookie experience is here! I have a very special and new recipe guaranteed to create a spark in your #MeatlessMonday morning! This recipe is all about the nuts, with a beautifully sweet and chocolatey taste without the unwanted fats and sugar, with a touch of crunchy and crispy that transform into the perfect cookie!

The Crispy Chocolate and Nuts Cookies are so enticing and they really taste incredible! These plant-based cookies are tremendously quick and super easy to make, just shoot everything in the blender, form it and bake it- and there you have it, a super delish brekky, snack or dessert that will make every single bite made in cookie-heaven.

And it gets better, as you discover how healthy this cookie recipe is! The nuts are just simply amazing- walnuts are a good source of omega 3 fatty acids and the almonds boost your energy as well as your memory. The super food chia seeds are high in protein, while the flax seeds are a good source of fiber. And the sweet thing about dates…

This cookie recipe definitely offers a flavor that matches no other, so indulge and let the good times roll!
