1/2 cup carob powder
1/2 cup cocoa powder
4 Tbsp. maple syrup

For the Dough:
1.) Grind up raw cashews and raw oats in a food processor or blender.

2.) Place all cookie dough ingredients into a large bowl and mix with a spoon.

3.) Mix until a dough forms and refrigerate dough while you make the chocolate chips.

*For the Chocolate Chips:
4.) Mix all chocolate chip ingredients together in a medium sized bowl.

5.) Roll the dough out onto parchment paper and place in the freezer for about 30 minutes.

6.) When chocolate is frozen, cut into chips.

*Tip: You can use store bought vegan chocolate chips (or standard dark chocolate) if you don’t want to make the chocolate chips. Just chop them up in a blender to make the pieces smaller.

*Tip: Store leftover cookies in the refrigerator
