Date S'mores Cookies

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Prepare Dates: Soak the dates in warm water for 15 minutes. Drain and blend them in a food processor for about 30 seconds, or until smooth and pasty.

3. Mix Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the almond butter, egg, blended dates, and Zen Basil Seeds. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated.

4. Shape Cookies: Scoop the mixture into small balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Flatten each ball slightly with the back of a spoon or your palm.

5. Bake: Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are slightly golden. Remove from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

6. Optional Drizzle: Melt white chocolate and dark chocolate separately. Drizzle the white chocolate over the cookies first, then add the dark chocolate drizzle on top for a beautiful, layered effect.

7. Serve and Enjoy: Enjoy these wholesome Date S'mores Cookies as a healthy snack or a delightful treat!
