These were so easy AND very tasty. They are calorie free you know. The oats cancel out all the bad stuff.It’s fudge-y because of the chocolate-PB part and chewy because of the oatmeal. Ingredients 1/2 cup butter (1 stick; or margarine, Earth Balance) 2 cups white sugar 1/4 cup brown sugar 6 tablespoons cocoa powder (I used TJ’s) 1/2 cup milk (cow, vegan, soy, nut, etc.  You could probably use water, too, and if so, I’d use about 2/3 c water) 1/2 heaping cup peanut butter 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 3.5 cups oats (I used whole rolled Old-Fashioned Quaker Oats) 1/4 cip chocolate chips, 1/4 cup peanut butter chips (or butterscotch/white chocolate chips, toffee bits, chopped candy bits, Reese’s Pieces, etc.), optional To see directions and complete recipes visit No-Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Oat Squares (Vegan, Gluten Free) @ www.averiecooks.com

Healthy Avocado Chocolate Cookies

Image
Anyone wondering – strange as it seems, you can’t taste the avocado at all, it just adds a really nice texture. Also, the coconut sugar doesn’t actually taste like coconut, it’s really sweet and if anything it has a slight caramel flavor to it. I have made these 2 times and they are delicious! I keep mine in the freezer.  Absolutely awesome cookies! Ingredients 100 g. (3/4 cup) avocado flesh (very ripe, but not brown) ½ cup (120mL) coconut sugar (*SEE NOTES) 1 egg (FOR VEGAN VERSION SEE BELOW) ½ cup (120mL) dark cocoa powder 50 g. dark chocolate chunks (I used 85% cocoa) ½ tsp. baking soda To see directions and complete recipes visit Healthy Avocado Chocolate Cookies @ thesmoothielover.com
