Recently, I teamed up with Amazing Grass to come up with a recipe featuring their Chocolate Peanut Butter flavored Protein Superfood. Even though the weather is finally starting to cool down, I still wanted to create an easy no-bake recipe that likely uses ingredients that you already have on-hand. An added challenge was making something that was gluten-free, soy-free, oil-free, vegan and obviously tasty! This post was sponsored by Amazing Grass, but all opinions on the product are completely my own. I have a lot of great things to say about it!

Ultra-Rich Fudgy Brownies (GF)
Brownies are amazing…am I right? Whether you’re a cake brownie or fudgy brownie lover, there’s a sweet treat for everyone! I’ve made my fair share of brownies in the past, but I’ve hardly ever ventured into the gluten-free territory.

Even further, I was able to make these completely nut-free as well. Now, regardless of if you’re vegan, or if you can’t consume gluten, dairy, eggs and/or nuts you can still enjoy these fabulous and ultra-fudgy brownies! Continue reading
Salted Dark Chocolate Ice Cream Sandwiches
If you know me, then it’s no mystery to hear that I love both chocolate and ice cream equally. But honestly, who doesn’t? And why should you have to choose? Growing up my family and I would vacation to the lake, and after a long day in the sun it became a tradition to go to the local grocery mart to pick up a Big Wheel. If you don’t know what that is, well essentially it’s a cookie ice cream sandwich. Big Wheel’s were delicious, full of processed ingredients and definitely not vegan. Since the weather’s been so nice, I decided on these homemade big wheels that ended up being a big hit in our house. Keep reading on to see how you can make this easy recipe for yourself!

White & Dark Chocolate Chip Cookies
This is one of those fun types of cookies that I see all the time online or pre-packaged in stores. Unfortunately they are rarely ever vegan, which is a huge bummer. However, one thing that I have learned about being vegan is that if you can’t find a vegan version, you can always make one yourself. These cookies taste way better than any store-bought cookie that I have ever tried, and they have way fewer ingredients as an added bonus! Continue reading
Vegan White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookies
First for the recipe roundup, I wanted to start with the classic White Chocolate Macadamia Nut cookie. When was the last time you honestly had one of these? I know mine was definitely a few years ago, and it definitely wasn’t vegan. This is one of those cookies that I literally never find a vegan version of in stores, and it’s a shame because they’re so good! If you happen to dislike macadamia nuts though, you can definitely sub-in peanuts, almonds, or just leave the nuts out. There’s nothing wrong with a white chocolate chip cookie all on its own. Continue reading
Chai Spice Snickerdoodles
Lastly, as part of my “end of the year” cookie roundup, these Chai Spice Snickerdoodles! I literally can’t remember when I last had a snickerdoodle. I mean, it probably wasn’t that long ago but that doesn’t mean I was looking forward to trying these cookies any less. I know a ton of people have tried this exact cookie recipe before and they loved it, but probably not as much as me. I’m not kidding, my mom says it’s one of her new favorite cookies that I’ve made. Continue reading

Regardless of your answer, these vegan butterscotch chip cookies are so delightful that you’ll want to make them just in time for Christmas! These would make a fantastic dessert to bring to your holiday cookie swap, but you can always leave them out for Santa with a glass of almond milk. Or, if Christmas flies by and you still haven’t made these, they are a great treat for any New Years celebration as well. Continue reading
