Why No-Bake Cookies?
No-bake cookies are the perfect solution when you don’t feel like turning on the oven. They’re quick to prepare, require no baking, and are completely free of refined sugar. Peanut butter and chocolate make the perfect pair: nutty, chocolaty, and simply irresistible!
Ingredients
- 150 gram rolled oats
- 100 gram peanut butter (creamy)
- 80 gram date paste (or 6–7 pitted, soaked dates)
- 3 tablespoon cocoa powder (unsweeten)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2-3 tablespoon plant-based milk (e.g., oat or almond milk)
Instructions
- If you don’t have ready-made date paste, soak the dates in warm water for about 10 minutes and blend them into a smooth paste.
- In a large bowl, mix the oats, peanut butter, date paste, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract. Stir everything well. If the mixture is too dry, gradually add 2–3 tbsp of plant-based milk until you achieve a moldable consistency.
- Take about 1 tablespoon of the mixture and form it into flat cookies. Place them on a tray or plate lined with parchment paper.
- Refrigerate the cookies for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up.
- After chilling, the cookies are ready to enjoy! Store them in an airtight container in the fridge – they’ll stay fresh for up to a week.
Notes
These no-bake peanut butter chocolate cookies are not only super delicious but also incredibly practical. They’re perfect as a snack on the go, a post-workout energy boost, or a sweet treat in between meals. And the best part: you can easily customize them with chopped nuts, coconut flakes, or chocolate chips.
