  • 1/4 cup raw cacao powder
  • 1/4 cups chopped almonds
  • 3 tabelspoons maple syrup
  • 3 tabelspoons coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 5 pitted and soaked dates

Method

  • Step 1

    To start, if the dates are not soft enough to be mashed, soak them in a bowl with boiling water for 5 minutes. After that, drain them well.

  • Step 2

    Next, coarsely chop up the raw almonds.

  • Step 3

    Combine everything together: mashed dates, tahini, maple syrup, vanilla extract, coconut oil, rolled oats, and chopped almonds. Mix well with a spoon or clean hands. The mixture will be thick, just make sure everything is mixed well together.

  • Step 4

    Using a 1/4 cup or an ice cream scoop, roll the dough with your hands and flatten it into cookie rounds. Top with sesame seeds.

  • Step 5

    Place your freshly made cookies onto a tray or flat plate lined with baking paper. Freeze for at least 30minutes. Keep refrigerated as close as possible before serving. Keep it in a sealed container in the fridge for up to a week or freeze it for up to 2 months. Enjoy!
