No-Bake Oreo Cookie Cups
Makes: 12 cookie cups
Ingredients
Oreo Cookie Dough:
- 2 cups Charcoal Chia gr8nola
- 4 Tbsp. cocoa powder
- 12 dates, soaked in warm water for 10 minutes
- Pinch of salt
- 2 tsp. ashwagandha or maca powder, optional
Filling:
- 8 oz dairy-free cream cheese, softened
- 3-4 Tbsp. maple syrup, depending on taste
- A few tablespoons of water, if needed
- Dairy-free chocolate syrup (or melt dark chocolate chips) + Charcoal Chia gr8nola for topping
Directions
Oreo Cookie dough:
- Add gr8nola, salt, cacao powder and maca (if using) to a food processor and process until the granola is completely desiccated.
- Add the soaked dates to the food processor and blend until you have a thick, sticky texture.
- Using an ice cream scoop or spoon, scoop the cookie dough mixture into a muffin tin. Pack the cookie dough in using your fingers, and use your thumb or the back of a spoon to create an indentation in the cookie dough. Set aside.
Filling & Assembly:
- Blend the dairy-free cream cheese and maple syrup. If the mixture is too thick, add a tablespoon or more of water to thin out the filling. It should be easy to spoon into the muffin tins.
- Once the filling is ready, spoon it into the indentations in the cookie dough. Top with chocolate syrup, swirling to combine, and more gr8nola.
- Store in the refrigerator before serving.
