It’s our turn to provide break-time snacks for our prenatal class at our midwifery center, and while searching for a vegan-friendly recipe, came across this by Jeanette Chen of Jeanette’s Healthy Living on One Green Planet. I am so excited to make it tonight!

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 cups almond flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup organic sugar
  • 1/2 cup Earth Balance Buttery Sticks, softened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup vegan dark chocolate

Preparation:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Combine almond flour, salt, sugar, Earth Balance, vanilla and peanut butter in a bowl and beat with electric mixer until thoroughly blended.
  3. Form into 1″ balls and place on parchment paper lined baking sheet, 2 inches apart.
  4. Bake for 12-14 minutes until set and lightly browned. Cool.
  5. Melt dark chocolate either in the microwave (for 45 seconds at a time, stirring in between until melted) or a double boiler, and drizzle on top of cookies.

Day 11: Ooey, gooey, yummy cupcakes!

Brianne had a cupcake party on Saturday that we didn’t make it to, but I sure wish I did. Here’s a recipe for Chocolate brownie cupcakes with

cream cheese icing that I would have made.
