Instructions
Place all ingredients in a blender or food processor.
Combine until the mixture is blended and sticks together. (Note: if using a high-powered blender like a Vitamix, do not turn your machine on high, or you just might end up with coconut butter :).)
Remove blended mixture from food processor / blender and form into your desired shape. I used a small cookie scoop to make the shapes in the photos. The cookies tend to fall apart easily, but if you gently press them back into their desired shape they tend to cooperate fairly well.
Decorate with shredded coconut, cocoa or carob powder, crushed nuts or seeds, or melted chocolate. For these photos, I used my Homemade Chocolate / Carob Chips, which I put in a small plastic baggie, poked a hole in the end, and piped out. Alternatively, you could of course use an icing bag.
Allow the cookies to firm up in the fridge or freezer. They will firm up at room temperature if your home is cool.
