For the date paste: Soak the Medjool Dates in a cup of hot water for 5 minutes. Place the Medjool Dates in a food process or high-speed blender with 2 tablespoons of the soaking water, and blend until a thick paste forms. (Add more water if necessary.)* For the cookie dough: Mix the melted butter, ¼ cup of the date paste, 3 tablespoons of almond milk and the vanilla extract together in a medium bowl. Add the flour and stir until combined. (If your dough is too crumbly, add 1 tablespoon of almond milk at a time until the desired consistency is reached). Fold in your chocolate chips. Grab a spoon and enjoy or store in the fridge for up to a week. Notes: *Store extra date paste in the fridge for up to a week, or freeze for later use.
