Chocolate Covered Pecan Pie Cookies | Dessert Recipe | The Ultimate Chef

 YIELD: 20 COOKIES

With chia seed and nuts, these delicious cookies taste sinful but are made from surprisingly wholesome ingredients. For a slightly more convenient version (and almost refined sugar–free), use non dairy chocolate chips for dipping the bottoms of the cookies instead of Raw Chocolate.

Directions

Preheat oven to 325°F.

In a small bowl, mix together the chia seed and water and let rest until gelled, for about 5 minutes.

Place the pecans, cashews, coconut flour, and salt into a food processor and blend until crumbly, for about 1 minute.

Do not overmix!

Once crumbly, add the dates, two at a time, until the mixture clumps together easily.

Process just until dates are well mixed.

Shape into disks 1½ inches wide by

½  inch  thick  and  place  onto  an  ungreased  cookie  sheet. 

Bake  for  15 minutes.

Let cool and then dip the bottoms of cookies into the Raw Chocolate, placing back onto a silicone mat or wax paper-covered baking sheet.

Chill for about 20 minutes in the refrigerator until the chocolate has set.

Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
