No Bake Oatmeal Peanut Butter Cookies...and Vegan!!


We made a version of these freezer cookies when I was little. I like to keep it in a big block and just cut pieces off, which is very dangerous throughout the day.

I attempted to use healthier ingredients and in result, they became accidentally vegan. Now you can feel a drop healthier and be a non animal killer..you're welcome ;-)

1/2 c. Coconut Oil
1/2 c. Almond Milk
1/2 c. Unsweetened Cocoa 
1 c. Natural Cane Sugar
1/4-1/2 c. Light Agave (depending on how sweet you like your desserts) 
1/2 c. Peanut Butter
3 c. Oats (quick cooking or old fashioned)
1 tsp. Coffee Extract (or vanilla)
Parchment Paper


Directions:

Combine; coconut oil, almond milk, cocoa, sugar, and agave in a medium saucepan. Mix over medium-high heat, stirring with a wooden spoon. Let the mixture boil for a minute stirring constantly to avoid the bottom burning, you will feel the mixture smooth out as all the sugar melts.


Take the mixture off the heat, add the peanut butter, oatmeal, and extract. 
Line a glass Tupperware container with parchment and lightly spray with non-stick spray. Pour into container, freeze, and enjoy when it sets up in about an hour!!
