Tahini Cardamom Cookies

  A crunchy cookie flavoured with cardamom, cinnamon and tahini. I created these tahini cardamom cookies especially for Eid (which is this Sunday/Monday depending on the sighting of the moon). This is the third year in a row where I make a cookie recipe to celebrate Eid. A couple of years ago I made my healthified Kleicha/date cookies recipe (which is probably my favourite recipe on the blog to date!) and last year I made another version of cardamom cookies without the tahini and with a few different variations, but still equally as delicious!  I used tahini instead of oil to add lots of goodness and flavour making these tahini cardamom cookies oil-free. They're also vegan (no eggs, milk or butter) [...]

2-Ingredient Chocolate Chickpea Bark

This 2-ingredient chocolate chickpea bark makes a great snack or healthy post meal treat! I have yet another super simple, few ingredient treat for you that's ready in no time and requires minimal effort and washing up to do after. My partner bought me some chocolate chickpeas a couple of weeks ago and that inspired me to make my own at home. It was such a simple concept and I thought it would be so much cheaper to make my own at home and they're really easy to make too. All you have to do is roast the chickpeas in the oven for 35-40 minutes until nice and crunchy, then mix them in chocolate while still hot so they melt [...]

5-Ingredient Chocolate Filled Cookie Cups

Yummy no-bake cups filled with lush chocolate spread. These 5-ingredient chocolate filled cookie cups are so easy to make and so indulgent! Quick and easy recipes with few ingredients has become my thing! I personally prefer making recipes that take no time at all to make. I try to use healthier ingredients, but every now and then I like to indulge in a not-so-healthy treat because I hate the idea of restricting my diet and not enjoying food and life! It's been a really difficult year for everyone and we're all looking for small comforts to make our days feel less stressful. Making an easy treat like these chocolate cups can be very therapeutic - good for both the mind [...]

Caramel Chocolate Doughnut Cookies

A fun recipe using silicon doughnut moulds. These caramel chocolate doughnut cookies are a fun take on Twix bars and made with healthier ingredients! Twix meets doughnuts! A doughnut shaped biscuits (aka cookie) with a layer of caramel all dipped in chocolate. The crunchy biscuit with the sweet caramel goes so well with the bitter dark chocolate coating and there's just a pinch of salt in the caramel to help intensify the flavour. All topped with a drizzle of caramel and crunchy nuts to make it look super pretty. I've made a couple of doughnut shaped desserts in the past that aren't actually doughnuts. I do love the idea of using doughnut silicon moulds to make something more creative and [...]

Chocolate Covered Tahini Cookies

Crunchy sweet cookies dipped in dark chocolate...I can't imagine anything better than these chocolate covered tahini cookies! There is no question in my mind that crunchy cookies (aka biscuits as we refer to them here in the UK) always win over soft ones as far as I'm concerned. There is just something so so SO satisfying about digging your teeth into a hard cookie and hearing that crunch. So good! What makes a cookie even better is dipping it in chocolate. It takes it to a whole new level and makes something delicious even more so! I used my tahini cardamom cookie recipe, used a smaller cookie cutter, dipped it in chocolate and drizzled some more tahini on top for [...]

Protein Cookie Dough Cups

* This post is sponsored by Juice Plus+*  An easy snack that requires few ingredients and steps - these protein cookie dough cups are no-bake and super tasty! I’ve always loved adding protein powder to my treats and snacks as you can easily bump up the nutrient content. Sweetened protein powders also add lots of flavour without having to add too much sweetener or not needing to add any at all! It’s a great alternative to flour in baking, but I prefer to use it in no-bake recipes as I feel the taste comes through a lot better. I created this recipe using Complete Vanilla Shake by Juice Plus+®, which is completely vegan and dairy-free. High in protein with some healthy [...]

No-bake Vegan PB&J Thumbprint Cookies

4-Ingredient Almond Cookies

Delicious cookies that are super easy to make and taste delish! These 4-ingredient almond cookies are a must try. Did you know you can make cookies using only 4 ingredients? AND they're much better for you compared to regular cookies. They're also vegan and gluten-free. I'm still trying to keep my recipes super simple with as little ingredients as possible since food shopping is still a bit of a pain with having to queue up and certain items still being out of stock. Also simpler recipes like this mean they're a lot faster to make and leave less washing up behind! Why buy unhealthy cookies filled with sugar, fats and God knows what else, when you can easily make a [...]
