Steps to Make It

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats and cocoa powder. Stir them together until they’re well mixed, creating a lovely chocolatey base. This will be the foundation of your cookies.
2. Next, add the peanut butter and almond milk to the dry ingredients. Use a spatula to mix everything together until it forms a thick, sticky dough. It should hold together nicely without being too crumbly.
3. Stir in the shredded coconut and vanilla extract. This adds a nice texture and flavor to your cookies. Make sure everything is evenly distributed throughout the dough.
4. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This will prevent the cookies from sticking and make cleanup easier. It’s a small step that makes a big difference.
5. Using your hands, scoop out small portions of the dough and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about an inch apart. They don’t need to be perfect; a little rustic charm is just fine.
6. Once all the dough is shaped, flatten each ball slightly with your fingers. This helps them set better and gives them that classic cookie shape. You’ll want to see a nice, smooth top.
7. Refrigerate the cookies for at least 30 minutes. This helps them firm up and makes them easier to eat. You’ll know they’re ready when they’re firm to the touch.
8. After chilling, serve the cookies straight from the fridge. They’re best enjoyed cold, but you can let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes if you prefer.

Make It Perfect

• For a bit of crunch, add chopped nuts or seeds to the dough.
• These cookies can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
• If you want a sweeter cookie, consider adding a sugar substitute like stevia or erythritol.

Mix It Up

• Try adding mini sugar-free chocolate chips for an extra treat.
• Swap peanut butter for sunflower seed butter for a nut-free version.

Perfect Partners

• Pair these cookies with a glass of almond milk.
• Enjoy them with a side of fresh fruit for a balanced snack.
