Preparation

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F, and grease a muffin pan with nonstick spray.
  2. Use a hand mixer to beat together the tahini/cashew butter, coconut sugar, cane sugar, flax egg, and vanilla.
  3. Add the flour, baking powder, and salt. Continue mixing until combined. If that batter seems dry/crumbly, add 2-3 tbsp almond milk (the texture will be dependent on how thick vs. oily your nut butter is).
  4. Fold in the mini chocolate chips.
  5. Use a large cookie scoop to scoop 2 to 3 tablespoons of dough into each muffin cup (you will get 8-9 in a full size muffin pan). Use a tablespoon to create an indentation in the middle of each cookie cup.
  6. Bake for 15 to 17 minutes at 350°F. As soon as you remove them from the oven, use the tablespoon to re-indent the middle of each cookie cup while the cookies are still warm.
  7. Cool for 30 minutes, then use a butter knife to pop them out of the muffin pan. Cool completely on a cooling rack.
  8. For the chocolate cream, blend the almond milk and Medjool dates. With the blender running, stream in the melted chocolate. Blend until well combined and very smooth.
  9. Spoon the chocolate cream into the middle of each cookie cup, top with three candy eggs or jordan almonds. Chill overnight (or at least 4 hours).

*While Medjool dates are high in natural sugars, they are low on the glycemic index thanks to a balanced amount of soluble fiber. The complex carbohydrates found in Medjool dates are digested at a slower rate, making them a source of dietary fiber and releasing energy to the body over a longer period of time.
