That mom life.

When life is hard, as a mom there’s really only one thing that I can do to get through the day. If I were able to take a nap, you better believe I’d be doing that. But with five six little kids running around, a nap is usually not possible.

Thank goodness for chocolate.

I’m always in the mood for things like dark chocolate brownies, a paleo frappuccino, or nice cream, to help me get through the craziness. Unfortunately, I don’t always have the time to spend whipping up brownies (nor do I always want to heat up the house!), and I need something I can share with crazy children who wander by while I’m making my mother-sustinance.

Enter cookies.

Easy for the win.

Specifically no-bake cookies. More specifically, no-bake cookies that are easy enough for my kids to make for me! Double win. Or triple, if you include the chocolate in there.

Yep, these little dark chocolate walnut coconut no-bake cookies are pretty much everything I need in the middle of a crazy day! Other than that frappuccino…

A delicious mouthful.

One other thing that’s important for chocolate treats in my house is that they don’t include crazy ingredients I won’t always have on hand. My sanity-saving desserts need to be completely accessible to me. 

Thankfully, coconut and coconut oil, honey, cocoa powder, and nut butter are things that are pretty much staples in my kitchen. Walnuts weren’t before I did the GAPS Diet, but since then I’ve been making sure I keep my fridge stocked with a bag from Coscto.

If you’re not in the habit of keeping walnuts around, you can totally leave them out. Or even substitute them for one of your other favorite nuts. Cashews, pecans, chopped peanuts, or sliced almonds would be delicious, too!
