Notes

*Use almond butter, sunflower seed butter, cashew butter, or any nut or seed butter you like. Just be sure it is well-stirred (doesn’t have a lot of oil separation).
Once the cookies have completed their initial hour in the freezer, you can transfer them to an airtight container and store them in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. The cookies do need to be stored at a cold temperature in order to hold up.
