Chocolate Chip Cookie Apple Sandwich

Chocolate Chip Cookie Apple Sandwiches–A healthy after school snack that tastes like cookie dough on apple slices, but is actually good for you!

You guys, I totally feel like I am being sneaky here, but I promise I am not. I was making this recipe, and my son came in and was like, “Woah is that cookie dough on apples?” And since he is totally the pickiest child, and I have a real struggle getting healthy and wholesome foods into the kid, I said, “Sure!”

But really it is homemade Honey Cashew Nut Butter on apple slices with a few chocolate chips sprinkled on top! But he was right, it totally tastes like cookie dough. Which means I get to do my happy dance. Why? Because I found something I feel great about feeding my kids that is good for them and tastes awesome. Feel free to omit the chocolate chips if you are adverse to the sugar, or use a dark chocolate. For me it was worth the minute amounts.

But then, I could have eaten this nut butter all by myself with nothing on it, or it on anything. It is just that yummy. I am pretty sure this will be a staple around our house, especially since it was so quick and easy to whip up, and tastes awesome. I made it in my food processor by blending cashews with a drizzle of honey, but any nut butter you love works here too.

Then make it and make these fun little snack sandwiches with it so you can enjoy a healthy snack that tastes like a treat!

Most parents do not take full advantage of snack time as an opportunity for adding some health to a child’s diet. It is far easier to hand them something packaged, processed, and convenient. But these little sandwiches only take a few minutes to make, and can give your child healthy nutrients, protein, and vitamins they need for healthy brain and body function, while making you feel great as a parent! #momwin

Good nutrition matters, so even though it can be hard, having an arsenal of good tasting, fun recipes, that are also nutritious helps. This is one of them!

If you don’t want to eat them in sandwich form, you could always just do them open-faced! I made myself a couple, but only got to eat one because my 2 year old snuck over and snagged one off my plate!

The whole family loved them.
