Instructions
Cookie Base
- In a medium bowl, add oat flour, peanut butter, yogurt, honey and vanilla extract and mix together to form a soft dough. If the mixture seems a little dry, add a teaspoon of milk or yogurt at a time until it comes together. If it's too wet, add a tablespoon of oat flour.Roll into 10-12 1-inch small balls, and place on a parchment-lined plate or baking sheet. Flatten each ball slightly with a fork to create a cookie shape.Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the cookies to firm up.
Protein Filling
- Mix filling ingredients until creamy. Place in fridge to firm up.Once firm, pair up cookies and sandwich them together with a spoonful of the filling between the two cookies to create sandwiches.Chill again until set.
Peanut Butter Drizzle
- Warm together all ingredients in 10 second bursts in a microwave or in a small dish over some boiling water. Drizzle over the cookies using a spoon or place into a small zip lock bag, cut off a corner and pipe it over the cookies for a decadent touch.
