This is a recipe out of a vegan cookbook called Eat, Drink and Be Vegan. Well, the author of the book just recently posted the recipe on line!
Super Charge Me Cookies
These cookies are really great. They definitely have a “healthy” taste but in a good way. I originally tried them for my four year old as a treat but honestly, he and my husband sometimes have them for breakfast. They are that good and the ingredients are all wholesome! My husband actually acts like a superhero when he eats them and pretends he has super powers :).
I actually didn’t have spelt flour, chocolate chips or maple syrup so I used whole wheat flour, double the amount of coconut and raw honey (which wasn’t raw after I cooked it, but it tastes much better than regular-and I realize also made these cookies non-vegan). The spelt flour may make them a bit more tender but regardless, they will turn out great.
I just wanted to share since so many guests ask about healthier dessert recipes. I really think you could take these to a work social, potluck or family party and they would get eaten right up. And the best part? You would have a healthy option!
