No Bake Valentine's Day Cookies
This matching game involves chocolate, so it’s perfect for Valentine’s Day! It would work great for a game night with the family, some fun entertainment for the sitter and kiddos or even a classroom party. Every time you find a match, you get to eat the treat. Who doesn’t love that?!
You’ll Need:
½ cup peanut butter
¼ cup coconut oil measured liquid
¼ cup coconut sugar
½ cup dark chocolate chips or semi sweet chocolate chips
1 teaspoon vanilla
½ teaspoon salt
1 ¾ cup oats
2 tablespoon chia seeds
To Make:
First, start by melting both the peanut butter and the coconut oil together in a small pot. Stir until smooth then add the coconut sugar then stir until the sugar is dissolved. By this time the mixture is just about to boil but do not boil it.
Move the pot off the heat and add in the chocolate chips. Stir until all the chocolate is melted and well incorporated. Add in the vanilla and the salt and stir one more time to combine.
Add in the oats and the chia seeds and stir until everything is coated with the peanut butter and chocolate mixture. Let the mixture rest in the pot for 20 minutes.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and using your heart cookie cutter scoop out 2-3 tablespoons in the center. Flatten using the back of the spoon and then remove the cookie cutter. Repeat this process until you are completely done with all the oat mixture. Top the cookie with pink sprinkles if you are making these for valentine's day.
Place the baking sheet in the freezer and let the cookies solidify in there for 20 minutes.
