Process
Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
- Preheat Oven to 350˚F
- Add dates and hot water to large bowl and microwave for 30 seconds. Remove dates from water and add to the dry bowl and mix on medium speed until the dates are completely broken up.
- Make sure coconut oil is at room temperature (if not, nuke it in the microwave for 10 seconds or so). Add to dates and mix on medium speed. Add maple syrup, vanilla extract, egg, and salt to this mixture and continue to mix until everything is combined.
- Measure out flour and baking powder. Add the baking powder and half of the flour to the bowl and mix until combined. Add the remaining flour and mix until all dry flour is incorporated.
- Add cashews and chocolate chips and mix at low speed or fold into dough with a spoon.
- Line baking sheets with parchment paper. Use a spoon and place approx 1.5 tablespoons of dough onto the baking sheet, flatten slightly and repeat with remaining dough, leaving approximately 1 inch between each dollop of dough. (These cookies won't spread out in the oven so don't worry about spacing them out. 1 inch apart is enough)
- Bake at 350˚F for 10 minutes or until edges and crinkles on the cookies turn golden brown. These are doughy cookies and will have a dough-like consistency after baking.
- Cool for 5 minutes, and enjoy!
