Cookies & milk

When it gets cold or I’m feeling a bit down, I like having some raw nut/seed milk with raw chocolate cookies.

This is a hazelnut milk with a dash of cinnamon and nutmeg that oozes comfort.

I love the taste of dried cherries with chocolate but I really wanted the cookies to have a fudgey simple chocolate flavour.

In a food processor (makes 12 small cookies):
1/2 cup soaked walnuts
1/2 cup soaked sunflower seeds
3 tbs unsweetened cocoa powder
12 dates
1 tsp vanilla essence
Dried cherries as topping

I moulded the paste into small flat cookie shapes and stuck a dried cherry in the centre.

Tip: freeze your raw cookies to make them hard like the real thing. But if you prefer them softer, stick them in the fridge. In summer I prefer them much colder and when frozen, the batter becomes like fudge with a hard cookie shell, but in winter, I like pillowy textures so I prefer them as a melt-in-your-mouth type of cookie.
