Samoa Cookies


I love Samoa girl scout cookies. But when you take a look at the ingredients you will see that they are very unhealthy. Being that I could eat a box of them all by myself, I wanted to create a healthier version.

Trust me when I say these 6 ingredient Samoas taste just like the original and are so much better for you.

I hope you will try them 

Homemade Samoas

(Makes about 18 to  20 Cookies)

Ingredients

20 Medjool Dates, pit and soak in warm water, drain and dry

1 Cup Flaked Coconut, toasted for 5 minutes until slightly golden at 325 degrees

1 tsp. Vanilla

A Pinch of Salt

1/2 Cup Dark Chocolate Chips

1/2 tbsp. Virgin Coconut Oil

Method

Line a baking pan that will fit in your freezer with parchment paper.

Put the dates, coconut flakes, vanilla and salt in a food processor and chop well.

Roll into balls about a teaspoon each and flatten with your hands.

Using a straw poke a hole in the middle of each cookie so it looks like a little donut.

Freeze for 45 minutes.

Add the chocolate chips and coconut oil to a bowl and microwave for about one minute until silky smooth. 

Dip the bottom of each cookie in the chocolate and put back on the parchment.

Then using a spoon drizzle a swirl of chocolate over each cookie.  Freeze for another 45 minutes and serve.

Store in an airtight container in the freezer.
