Friends, are you a cookie lover like I am? Then you’ll love these Tahini Dried Cherry Monster Cookies recipe! Keep reading for a little “chat” about
Tahini Dried Cherry Monster Cookies
They’re called “monster” cookies because monster cookies are loaded with peanut butter, oats, chocolate chips, and more!
Ingredients for monster cookies
My surprise ingredients, besides tahini, are tart cherries and white chocolate. I love this combo! You may have already tried my Vegan Tahini Coconut Chocolate Cookies.
Usually monster cookies have peanut butter, but today we’ve replaced the peanut butter with tahini!
Monster cookies are peanut butter cookies with oats, chocolate chips, and M&Ms. This easy monster cookie recipe yields warm, chewy cookies.
The white chocolate is gooey if you eat them warm!
And true confession here. I love cookies hot out of the oven, frozen, chewy, or crunchy. And of course the dough is the very best :)
Only 24 hours in a day
There are only 24 hours in a day. And when we feel rushed and constantly out of time, we often say, I wish there were more hours in the day! Right? Yes, hand raised.
Changing things up
We really need to look at our days and see if we are content with the way we spend our time and priorities.
I loved listening to this podcast on resting one day a week, because it made me stop and evaluate many things.
A friend of mine says, “let’s pick up the phone or pick a new plan, or pick up the pieces.”
We need to do something different, even if it’s small, to move you closer to who we want to be!
I say start small and invite a friend over. Open our hearts and hands.
