Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 cup medjool dates, pitted
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup vegan cream cheese
- 1/3 cup cocoa powder
Binding and Liquid Ingredients:
- 1/3 cup runny almond butter
- 1/3 cup dairy-free milk
- 1/3 cup flax meal
- 1/3 cup raw cashews, soaked 2 hours in hot water
- 1/3 cup coconut cream
Flavor Enhancers:
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1–2 tablespoons maple syrup (optional)
Instructions
- In a food processor, combine almond flour, ground flax, almond butter, pitted dates, cocoa powder, milk, and vanilla extract. Pulse until a cohesive, uniform dough develops with a smooth texture.
- Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of the dough and roll into compact balls. Gently press each ball between your palms to create flat, circular cookie shapes approximately 2 inches in diameter.
- Drain soaked cashews and transfer to a clean food processor. Add coconut cream and maple syrup, blending until achieving a silky, consistent mixture. Incorporate cream cheese and pulse briefly to create a creamy filling.
- Arrange half of the prepared cookie discs on a flat surface. Carefully spread a generous layer of the cashew cream filling across each cookie base, ensuring even distribution.
- Place the remaining cookie discs on top of the filled cookies, creating sandwich-like structures. Press gently to secure the filling.
- Transfer the assembled cookies to the freezer. Chill for 1 hour to allow initial setting, then remove and ensure proper sandwich formation. Return to freezer for an additional 30 minutes until firm and fully chilled.
Notes
- Swap almond flour with oat flour for a different nutty flavor and texture, ensuring gluten-free option if using certified oats.
- Use coconut cream alternative like silken tofu for lighter filling if avoiding high-fat ingredients.
- Reduce maple syrup amount or replace with stevia for lower sugar content, perfect for diabetic-friendly version.
- Add pinch of sea salt to cookie dough to enhance chocolate depth and balance sweetness without overwhelming flavor profile.
