Raw Oreos

After a long holiday break I'm back blogging. I made these scrumptious cookies before Xmas and never got around to posting them so that's my project for the day....

These were make by accident. I was having a craving for chocolate and didn't have any almonds or pecans kicking around to make my usual bliss ball recipe so thought I'd give walnuts a try. Wow great idea!

For the cookie
1 cup walnuts
1 cup dates
5 tbsp cocoa
2 tbsp honey or agave
1tsp vanilla extract

Place all ingredients in food processor. Process until doughy.

"Icing" filling
1 cup cashews (soaked over night)
2tbsp coconut oil
1tsp vanilla extract
2tbsp honey or agave

Place in high speed blender and blend until really smooth.

To assemble press cookie dough into round cookies scoop 1 tbsp of "icing" ontop and another cookie stacked on top that. Feel free to chill for an hr to get everything a bit firm. Enjoy! Xoxo
