What happens when you are in full swing holiday mode but you don’t have an oven? You no bake. What? No baking is a thing! It’s no longer an adjective we use to describe things. It’s a straight up vern that is taking the world by storm.
Want the excitement of baking something without turning on your oven? You gotta no bake. Want a quick, easy, and festive treat to throw in your kid’s lunchbox or take a to a brunch with your gal pals? No bake.
They’re super straightforward and easy to make. And trust me, once you see how easy they are to make, you’ll be rolling some balls every Friday night to snack on while you binge watch netflix.
So let’s jump into it and make some uber festive No Bake Christmas Sprinkle Cookies!! You’re going to love them!
Place the almond flour, cashew butter, agave, vanilla, and salt in a bowl. Before you ask me in the comments, let me just say YES you can sub any nut or seed butter for cashew butter. Peanut butter, almond butter, tahini, they all work. But just keep in mind cashew butter is so mellow and creamy, so whatever nut butter you end up using, the cookies will take on that flavor.
Secondly, YES you can sub honey, maple syrup, coconut nectar, or any “sticky” sweetener for agave. Use a whisk or rubber spatula to mix everything together.
Fold in 2 tablespoons of sprinkles until incorporated throughout. I used Christmas sprinkles because it’s Christmas time, but you can have fun with it! Make these for a baby shower or New Years, or Galentine’s day. Literally all you have to do is switch the color of the sprinkles.
Use your hands to roll the batter out into 12 balls and place them on a lined baking sheet. Gently press the tops of the balls down slightly. Add additional sprinkles to the tops of the mounds.
Then, use the back of a fork to press the sprinkles down into the top of the cookie. Chill in the fridge for 20 minutes and enjoy. Store in the fridge if you don’t end up eating them all 🙂
