Kye and I actually made them together and he and I BOTH licked the bowl! They were THAT good!!! Very similar to cocoa no bakes actually ;)
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup flour blend (I have never made the blend she recommends so I just used plain old flour)
- 3 cups whole-grain cereal flakes, such as Wheaties or Total (I used Total)
- 1/4 cup cocoa
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 large egg
- 1/3 cup purple puree (you can see how to make it HERE, I have some pre-made and frozen)
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350 and line a baking sheet with parchment paper (I didn't have any parchment paper and they turned out fine)
- Place the oats in the blow of a food processor and process on high until oats are finely ground
- Add cereal flakes and pulse several times until flakes resemble crumbs
- Transfer processed oats and cereal to a large mixing bowl and whisk in the flour blend, cocoa, and baking soda (Kye LOVED to help whisk!)
- In another bowl, whisk together egg, purple puree, sugar, vanilla and cooled softened butter
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix just until combined
- Drop single tablespoonfuls of batter onto the baking sheets, leaving about an inch between each cookie
- Flatten the cookies with the back of a fork that's been sprayed with oil to keep from sticking to the batter
- Bake 12-15 minutes, until lightly browned around the edges
- Remove from pan and let cool. Store in airtight container or freeze in sealed plastic bags
