Optional Add-In’s, Extras, Tweaks, Variations for the Previous Recipes:
- Use Christmas Cookie Cutters and make Stars, Reindeer, Gingerbread men, etc.
- Shape into logs, bars, biggerballs, squares, hearts
- Decorate with Sprinkles!!!
- Frosting or Icing (see my Raw Vegan Icing Recipe Here)
- Roll finished product in: Cinnamon-Sugar, Brown or White Sugar, Carob, Coconut, Cocoa Nibs, Cocoa Powder, Powdered Sugar, Shredded Coconut
- Dip in Maple Syrup or Agave
- Add in Carob, Coconut, Cocoa Nibs into the “dough” mixture
- Rather than adding in chocolate chips, add raisins
- Use raisins instead of dates, gogi berries instead of raisins, dried cranberries instead of dried cherries, etc.
- Use or combine multiple types of dried fruit rather than solely using dates: gogi berries, raisins, cranberries, craisins, apricots
- Dash of agave or coconut oil if mixture is too dry
- Dehydrate for a more “cooked tasting” version. But I love the raw dough taste so this is out for me generally speaking!
- Flatten or mold into larger cookie shapes
- Double the recipe to share with others. I like to make dessert recipes that don’t make a ridiculous quantity so you’re not tempted to eat the whole thing in a sitting! But also, smaller batches are nice because that way you get to try it, but then move onto something new & different. I need variety in my dessert life, I tell ya!
The sky’s the limit, get creative!!!!!!!!
Tip of the Day: What Makes Up a “Good Recipe”
For me, a recipe has to encompass many things if I am going to actually make it and then continue making it as it becomes a go-to favorite.
Some of those recipe elements include:
1. Easy. The less steps the better.
2. Time Involved. If I cannot make the entire thing from walking into my pantry to grab the dry goods to the last dish is dried and put away 30 minutes later then I am probably not going to make it. I have a life outside of the kitch, too.
3. One appliance. For me, this is my Vita-Mix. For you, it may be your food processor or Magic Bullet. Dehydrated food is lovely, but it can be a lonnnnng wait and too much advance planning. And also the amount of dishes involved factors in here too. If you need a whisk, spoon, spatula, mixer beaters, Vita canisters, dehydrator screens, 7 bowls, forget it. One Appliance Please!!
4. Very simple and short ingredient list. Nothing exotic. Nothing too expensive.
5. Taste. Must be excellent and if it’s a raw approximation of Something Else, it’s gotta taste like the Something Else it’s trying to be otherwise why bother. Just eat the Something Else or skip it entirely. Unless I can make a raw approximation that is spot-on in the flavor department, I’d rather just not have it.
