Instructions
Step 1
In a food processor blend the dates, nut butter, vanilla and salt until it forms into a paste/batter texture
Step 2
Then, add in the coconut flakes and food process – stopping every few seconds
Step 3
To make the samoa cookies – either form them on a piece of parchment paper and create a hole in them. Or, fill the samoa batter into a donut mold and freeze for 1.5-2 hours
Step 4
Pop out of the mold/parchment paper and dip one side of the samoa into melted chocolate, place it on a piece of parchment paper and drizzle the top with chocolate
Step 5
Let it freeze for another 20 minutes..
You can stop it here and enjoy the cookies by themselves, but if you want to take it up a notch, add a scoop of ice cream in between 2 samoa cookies and enjoy!
