Today I’m sharing with you a fun kid-friendly recipe, requested by my crew after many of their friends asked us to buy Girl Scout cookies… Did we buy them? Yes, but it wasn’t long after the first box was open that they asked if we could make our own version. And if you are anything like us you will absolutely devour these no-bake vegan Samoa Cookies. Oh, and did I mention that they are gluten-free, naturally sweetened, easy to make, nut-free, and full of fiber and healthy fats?

No Bake Vegan Samoa Cookies

Chewy, caramel, coconutty Samoas. Warning, these are just as addicting as the original but super healthy and simple to make. Plus you won’t feel bad if you eat three, four, or five of these treats. As simple as this recipe is it does require some hands-on preparation, but what better reason to get your kiddos in the kitchen and have some fun?

The base for these cookies is simple, just four ingredients that you probably have in your pantry right now. And if you want to make it easier, instead of making your own chocolate sauce use your favorite dairy-free, nut-free chocolate chip brand, I used the Enjoy Life Chocolate Chips. They are my favorite!

When you are all finished you will have a soft, chewy, chocolatey, caramel, coconut-y cookie that makes this whole healthy mom thing a piece of cake or should I say cookie ;)

And your kiddos will be so very pleased!
