They only call for 6 ingredients, they're no bake and are better for you than your average indulgent dessert. Plus, they look really cute! Dipped in chocolate to make them that bit more special.

These vegan & gluten-free cookie dough bites are packed with healthy fats, fibre and yummy flavours. It's been a month since my last post!

Vanilla Chocolate Sandwich Cookies

Vanilla Chocolate Sandwich Cookies

Vanilla Chocolate Sandwich Cookies It's no secret that I love cookies (or biscuits as we refer to them here in the UK) they're my favourite sweet treats and the kind of recipes I enjoy creating the most. I've made so many cookie recipes over the years from tahini chocolate cookies, no-bake thumbprint cookies and Nutella filled cookies to more adventurous cookies like chocolate & strawberry S'mores, cinnamon roll cookies and doughnut cookies more recently. I also love recreating vegan and gluten-free versions of classics like Jaffa cakes, Wagon Wheels and Jammie Dodgers. So yeah, I'm a cookie monster and proud of it! Another big love of mine is chocolate. Add chocolate to any dessert and I'll eat it! I think what [...]
