Who said cookies need to be baked?? Why not make your holiday treats healthy!
We tried out 5 raw holiday cookie/bar recipes. All ingredients were raw, healthy and organic AND there was no baking involved! They turned out delicious and are healthy too, how about that?! We would recommend making a small batch first so you can tweak the recipe to your liking. Some of the recipes if we were to do again would require a little tweaking. Here were our Top 2 Favorite Recipes:
- Raw Chocolate Shortbread Bars
- White Chocolate Carrot Cake Larabar Bites
The recipes we used are located on these sites:
- Raw Chocolate Shortbread Bars
- Modification: use less lemon juice in the frosting and a very thin layer of frosting
- White Chocolate Carrot Cake Larabar Bites
- Modification: if you don’t like them sweet, lessen or eliminate the white chocolate chips
- Freckled Blondie Truffle
- No Bake Coconut Delights
- Coconut “Mounds” Bark
- Modification: use less coconut oil
