Hi Bold Bakers!
You know what would happen if you combined a chewy chocolate macaroon and rich fudge brownie? You’d get this No Bake Chocolate Cookie. My new no bake chocolate cookie recipe means serious business. With super-rich chocolate and nutty shredded coconut, this cookie has the right amount of sweetness without any fuss at all. With no baking required and the exclusion of gluten, eggs, flour and refined sugar, this cookie recipe is perfect for every kind of baker.
Making No Bake Cookies
My Chocolate No Bake Cookie really could not be easier to make. In a bowl, simply melt together the butter and the honey then add in the coconut and cocoa powder. I know, you’re thinking there has to be more to it but the beauty lies in the simplicity. These chocolate cookies can be made in 10 minutes flat, making them perfect for both last minute entertaining and those regular chocolate cravings!
What makes this cookie egg, flour and gluten-free?
My no bake cookie recipe omits flour and eggs. They’re simply not needed. The sticky honey and shredded coconut truly hold the ingredients together once set in the refrigerator. With such amazing chewiness and stand-out texture, let’s just say these cookies are a force to be reckoned with.
Do these no bake cookies need to be refrigerated?
Since these are no-bake cookies, they truly rely on the refrigerator to set and hold together. With just a short time in the fridge or freezer, the honey and butter will beautifully adhere to the coconut and cocoa powder and ensure that they hold their shape and form. And no, there’s no need to worry about these melting on you. While I do suggest storing them in the refrigerator, they are lovely served at room temperature.
