"Fit Girl" Scout Samoa Cookies

These are the "fit girl" version of Samoa cookies - filled with protein, brain powering Omega 3's, and no added sugar - so enjoy 2,3, or maybe even 4 ;)



"Fit Girl" Scout Samoa Cookies
Servings: about 8-10 cookies

Cookies Ingredients
1/2 of 10 oz package of whole pitted dates (about 10-15)
2 Tbsp of coconut oil
1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
1 (overflowing) scoop of almond butter
1 tsp of pure vanilla extract
1 small scoop of protein powder (optional)
1 Tbsp of chia seeds (optional)


Chocolate Dip Ingredients
1/4 cup of semi sweet baking chocolate (or chocolate chips or your favorite chocolate bar!)
1/2 Tbsp of coconut oil

Directions

Combine cookie ingredients into a VitaMix (or blender/food processor) and blend until it becomes a "dough" type consistency. Take a spoon and individually scoop the "dough" out of the blender and roll into small balls. 

After your cookies are assembled, melt your chocolate and coconut oil together to create your molding chocolate. Then, dip the bottom of the balls into the chocolate and place on a cookie sheet (or plate) coated with aluminum foil or parchment paper (so they don't stick).

Place in the fridge until the chocolate hardens and enjoy!!
