NO BAKE PALEO VEGAN CHOCOLATE HAZELNUT COOKIES (KETO, SUGAR FREE, LOW CARB)

Well, my friends, it could not be any more simple. You’ll also find the end results to be something pretty magical, in this case having no bake cookies tasting like a healthy Ferrero Rocher chocolate!

I think many assume that no bake cookies need to have peanut butter in them to hold up, but that really isn’t the case. Unless you want your cookies tasting like peanut butter, it’s not necessary at all.

For these particular cookies, swapping out the peanut butter with homemade ‘Nutella’ (or chocolate hazelnut spread) was the key.

I’ve been on a huge cookie kick lately, as evidenced by this coconut chocolate no bake cookies recipe and these chocolate peanut butter ones.

It was high time for me to throw some variation into the mix, and something about the added hazelnuts got a big tick on my book.

These no bake cookies could not be any easier to whip up to satisfy both the cookie craving, the chocolate craving and the healthy fix to satisfy any sweet tooth.

Not only are these no bake chocolate hazelnut cookies paleo and vegan-friendly, they also tick quite a few other boxes. They are suitable for those following a ketogenic and low carb diet (thanks to the homemade hazelnut butter- see recipe below!), but they are also naturally sugar free and dairy free.

These are your guilt-free and healthy cookies which literally take less than 5 minutes to whip up- You really have no excuses. Because they are keto friendly, they are super satisfying too!

Ingredients;

• 3/4 cup coconut flour
• 2 cups chocolate hazelnut spread of choice I used homemade 'Nutella'
• 1/2 cup sticky sweetener of choice I used monk fruit maple syrup
• 1 cup crushed hazelnuts
• 1 tbsp liquid of choice * See notes

Instructions;

1. Line a large plate with parchment paper and set aside.
2. In a large mixing bowl, add all your ingredients and mix very well, until a dough is formed. If the batter is too thick, add liquid of choice. If the batter is too thin, add a little extra liquid of choice.
3. In a small mixing bowl, add your crushed hazelnuts. Using your hands, roll the dough into small balls. Roll each ball into the crushed hazelnuts before placing on the lined plate. Press each ball into a cookie shape and refrigerate until firm.
4. If desired, drizzle with melted chocolate.

Notes;

• * This may not be needed at all- Only use it if batter is too thick and you have difficulty rolling balls in the crushed hazelnuts.
• No Bake Paleo Vegan Chocolate Hazelnut Cookies (Keto, Low Carb, Sugar Free) can be kept at room temperature, but are best refrigerated or frozen.
