Vegan Sugar Free Salted Hot Chocolate No Bake Cookies
Let’s talk cookies!
When it comes to cookies or any dessert for that matter, the easier the better! I love a good one bowl concept and a no bake recipe is even better! If it’s base is oats, you’ve got my attention lol. I had heard of this no bake cookie concept a while back and was excited to finally see what all the fuss was about.
Was it worth it? Yes!
Many cringe at the thought of oatmeal cookies, but I personally love them. Oats pack protein, fiber, are filling, affordable, and truly make these cookies! Another thing I love about cookies, is making them sugar free! For many recipes you can easily swap out sugar or traditional chocolate with sugar free alternatives. Removing the sugar makes these cookies even better.
These cookies are quick, easy, affordable, can easily be made in bulk, pack a rich chocolate flavor, pack protein and fiber, dairy free, sugar free, require no baking or sifting of ingredients or chill time, taste like hot chocolate, you can use traditional cocoa, you can throw in super foods to amp up the nutritional value, sweet, savory from the salt, perfect for any season, and just so good!
If you love a quick and easy bite, you have to try these no bake Salted Chocolate No Bake Cookies!
Why this recipe is great:
Quick
Easy
No chill time
Buttery soft cookie
No sifting of ingredients
Savory and sweet!
