3. Transfer to the refrigerator and chill for 2 hours.
4. Store airtight in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, or freeze for up to 2 months. These taste best cold.
No-Bake Oatmeal Raisin Cookie
1. To the cookie base, add oats, raisins and cinnamon and mix well. If the mixture seems too dry to compress (flours vary in absorbency), add an additional 1 Tbsp or more of almond milk.
2. Scoop 2- to 3-Tbsp portions of dough onto a cookie sheet. Roll dough into balls and then slightly press down with the palm of your hand.
