The other day, I had a serious craving for chocolate chip cookies. But it’s been so hot here lately, there was no way in hell I was about to turn on my oven to melt in my kitchen from the heat.

So, instead of giving up on my craving all together, I decided to whip up a batch of No-Bake Almond Joy Cookies with some of my favorite ingredients. In the mix: almond flour, shredded coconut, coconut butter, honey, and dairy-free chocolate chips. As a result, the combination of flavors reminds me of an Almond Joy candy bar. Mmm!
