Healthier Version of No Bake Chocolate Cookies




2 1/2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup coconut oil
1 cup smooth or chunky peanut butter
21/2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/3 cup sweetened shredded coconut
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2-1 cup slivered almonds, toasted

In a medium saucepan combine coconut oil, peanut butter, honey, chocolate chips and cocoa powder. Once everything is melted and smooth. Let boil for about 1 minute on low temperature and add vanilla stirring constantly. Immediately, stir in the coconut, oats and almonds if using. Combine well.
Drop tablespoonfuls onto a tray lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Place in the fridge to set.
