WHAT YOU NEED TO MAKE CHOCOLATE CINNAMON BLISS BALLS

You need the following ingredients to make these bliss balls (the exact measurements are in the recipe card below):

• Nuts – use any mix of nuts of your choice, such as almonds, walnuts, hazelnuts, or cashews.
• Cocoa powder – Use good quality natural cocoa powder.
• Cinnamon – Adds warm depth of flavor. I recommend using Ravaneō N°22 Ceylon Cinnamon.
• Salt – balances the sweetness. I recommend using Ravaneō N°15 Flower of Salt.
• Dates – Use soft pitted dates. If the dates are not soft and sticky, soak them in hot water for about 10 minutes, then drain them well.
• For coating: I used cocoa powder, ground pistachios, desiccated coconut.

Equipment you need:

• High-speed blender or food processor
• Kitchen scale (optional) – I like to use a kitchen scale to make sure the bliss balls are all even, but you can skip this step.

HOW TO MAKE THE HOMEMADE CHOCOLATE CINNAMON BLISS BALLS

You will find the instructions and ingredients list in the recipe card at the bottom of the post.

1. Step: Blend nuts, cocoa powder, and cinnamon

To the food processor or high-speed blender, add nuts, cocoa powder, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Blend on medium or pulse until finely ground.

2. Step: Mix in dates

Next, add in soft dates and blend for about 30 seconds or until it all combines and the mixture sticks together.

3. Step: Make bliss balls

Roll out 20 even balls from the mixture (use kitchen scale for more accuracy – 1 ball = about 15g/0,5 oz). Then roll each ball into the desiccated coconut or cocoa powder or ground pistachios to coat.

Enjoy immediately or refrigerate in the fridge to firm up.

THESE WHITE CHOCOLATE PISTACHIO COOKIES ARE

• vegan
• dairy-free
• egg-free
• chewy and soft on the inside
• crispy on the outside
• flavorful
• super delicious
• quick and easy to make
• done in 1 bowl
• packed with white chocolate and roasted pistachios

WHAT YOU NEED TO MAKE WHITE CHOCOLATE PISTACHIO COOKIES

You need the following ingredients to make these vegan white chocolate pistachio cookies (the exact measurements are in the recipe card below):

• Vegan butter – use vegan butter that has around 75-80% fat. Let the butter soft at room temperate before making the dough.
• White granulated sugar
• Brown sugar – keeps the moisture within the cookies, therefore helps to make them chewy and soft.
• Unsweetened almond milk – Use any plant-based milk of your choice, such as oat, soy, or cashew milk. Make sure it has room temperature.
• All-purpose flour
• Cornstarch – improves the texture – makes the cookies softer in the center.
• Baking soda – leaven the dough and makes the cookies soft and chewy in texture.
• Sea salt– balances the sweetness.
• Pistachios – Roughly chop the pistachios so they are evenly distributed within the dough. Use roasted, unsalted good-quality pistachios.
• Vegan white chocolate – Use a good-quality vegan white chocolate bar (or chips). I like to use one by iChoc.

Equipment you need:

• Baking tray – I recommend using a light-surface baking tray.
• Parchment paper
• Medium-size mixing bowl
• Hand mixer or a stand mixer
• Ice cream scoop – medium size – 2,8 tbsp/1,4 oz/2 inches (5cm)
• Cooling rack

HOW TO MAKE VEGAN WHITE CHOCOLATE PISTACHIO COOKIES

You will find the instructions and ingredients list in the recipe card at the bottom of the post.

1. Step: Preheat the oven and prepare the baking tray

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line the baking tray with parchment paper (it will prevent the cookies from burning at the bottom). Set the tray aside.

2. Step: Make cookie dough

To a medium-size mixing bowl, add vegan butter, white cane sugar, and brown sugar and mix with a hand mixer (or use a stand mixer) for about 1 minute until fluffy. Add unsweetened almond milk and mix until combine. Then add half of the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and a pinch of sea salt, mix, add the rest of the flour and mix again with a hand mixer or spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the dough. Fold in chopped pistachios and vegan white chocolate.

3. Step: Bake the cookies in preheated oven

Scoop out 10 dough balls (using medium size scoop – 2inch /5cm). Place the cookie dough ball on the prepared baking tray (make some space between them), top with more white chocolate chunks and chopped pistachios, and bake them in a preheated oven for 11-12 minutes.

Take the cookies out of the oven and let them sit on the tray for about 2-3 minutes. Then transfer them to a cooling rack and let cool for about 10 minutes.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

DOES THE COOKIE DOUGH NEED TO BE REFRIGERATE BEFORE BAKING?

No, you don’t need to refrigerate the cookie dough. Bake the cookies right after dividing them into balls. However, refrigerating the cookie dough (1 hour to overnight) will help to develop more flavor.

You can keep the dough in the fridge for up to a week.

HOW TO STORE WHITE CHOCOLATE PISTACHIO COOKIES?

First, make sure the cookies cooled completely. Then store them in an airtight container at room temperature or in the fridge.

HOW LONG DO VEGAN PISTACHIO COOKIES LAST?

The cookies will maintain their taste and texture for 3 days at room temperature. But you can store them for up to 2 weeks.

CAN I FREEZE WHITE CHOCOLATE PISTACHIO COOKIES?

Yes, you can freeze the cookies for up to 3 months. Make sure they are completely cool, then store them in an airtight container or bag. Before serving, let them thaw at room temperature (or warm them in the preheated oven to 350°C (180°C) for few minutes).

You can also freeze them before baking (scoops of cookie dough balls). Then bake them for additional 2-5 minutes than the recipe calls.
