From the velvety caramel and crunch of toasted coconut to the buttery shortbread and a chocolate center, each ingredient makes the best homemade Samoa Cookie.
Taste:
I’d say we nailed it on the head with these Samoa cookies that taste a lot like the Girl Scout Samoas. Lots of warm toasted caramel flavoring with coconut and chocolate.
Texture:
light, crispy and moist with hints of crispy coconut on the outside and hemp seed for more crunch.
Ingredients:
Oat Flour (2 cups) – To make the flour, your base of the cookie
Dates (~5 un pitted) – Caramel flavor and are high in fiber and antioxidants
Coconut Flakes (1 cup) – Makes the cookie crisp and adds flavor
Maple Syrup (2 tbsp.) – Sweetener
Hemp Seeds (optional) – Makes them crunchy
Step 1:
Mix the oats in your blender- creating the flour. This brand of oats is the best – Their gluten free and you can incorporate them into a lot of recipes.
Step 2:
Un-pitt the dates- cut the date in half and remove pit. Mash the dates in a bowl with a fork.
Step 3:
Combine the oat flour, mashed dates, coconut flakes and hemp seeds.
Step 4:

Step 5:
Place in the refrigerator for a 2 hours.
