Ingredients
  

For the Cookie Base
  • 2 cups Almond Flour Substitution: Can use oat flour, but start with half the amount as it's not a 1:1 swap.
  • 1/4 cup Maple Syrup Substitution: Agave syrup can work, but the flavor may vary slightly.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Use pure vanilla extract for the best taste.
For the Peanut Butter Filling
  • 1 cup Natural Runny Peanut Butter Substitution: Sunflower seed butter for a nut-free option.
For the Chocolate Coating
  • 1 cup Vegan Dark Chocolate Chips Melt with coconut oil for a smooth coating.

Method
 

Steps to Make Homemade Tagalongs
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine 2 cups of almond flour, 1/4 cup of maple syrup, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mix until a thick dough forms.
  3. Take about 1.5 tablespoons of dough and roll it into a ball. Flatten each ball gently and create a small indent in the center.
  4. Place the shaped cookies on your prepared baking sheet, spacing them about an inch apart. Bake for 20 minutes or until edges are lightly golden.
  5. Once cooled, fill each cookie's indent with a generous amount of natural peanut butter.
  6. Chill the cookies in the freezer for about 10-15 minutes.
  7. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 1 cup of vegan dark chocolate chips with 1 tablespoon of coconut oil. Microwave until melted.
  8. Dip each cookie into the melted chocolate, ensuring they're well-coated on all sides.
  9. Place the baking sheet in the freezer for about 5-10 minutes to let the chocolate harden completely.
  10. Once the chocolate has set, enjoy your delicious Homemade Tagalongs!
