Download Recipe

Ingredients

  • 2 cups shredded, unsweetened coconut
  • 1/3 cup raw, unprocessed honey
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil, softened
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • Toppings: unsweetened dark chocolate, fresh raspberries, fresh strawberries, almond butter, large coconut flakes, chopped nuts

Directions

  1. In a medium sized bowl, combine the shredded coconut, raw honey, coconut oil, vanilla extract and sea salt. Place in the freezer to chill for 5 minutes. This step is important to help get the cookies to stick together well. Coconut oil hardens as it chills and helps to bind the cookie together.
  2. Shape the dough into 1 Tablespoon-sized balls. Press into a cookie shape, with an indention in the middle. If you have trouble keeping your dough together, or if you simply want a very sturdy cookie, then melt another ¼ cup of coconut oil, then drizzle the oil in the center of your cookie. Place in the freezer for 10 minutes. Now you’ve got a sturdy cookie!
  3. Choose your cookie toppings. Fill the indentions with your favorite toppings. Enjoy!
